Anything that increases our dependency on C++ is much, much worse.
You can easily call into something with a C ABI (er, OS ABI designed around C, or whatever is the correct technical name) from any language. Try that with C++ :D
- pjmlp 10y agoNo problem on Windows thanks to .NET and COM. C++ provides better tools to write safer code than C ever will. I would rather be using Ada, Rust, System C#, D, <whatever safe systems programming language>, but until OS vendors start providing something else, C++17 will have to do. Since 1994 I only write C code when forced to do so.
