Guess what, I am also proficient in writting NT kernel drivers - I love their kernel btw. Maybe you can start by sharing your visionary skills with Microsoft. Or maybe Apple (but do try freebsd forums first, Apple and Microsoft might ignore you, but I know there will be responses there - maybe, just maybe, head to bsd kernel development mailing list directly).
/sarcasm ooooooooofffffff
- ChrisSD 7y agoMicrosoft writes much of the kernel in (msvc) C++ but they're keenly investigating other languages. They're also researching designs for new ones. C isn't the only game in town.
- pjmlp 7y agoIn case you missed the message, C is deprecated on Windows, any updates beyond C89 are done as side effect of ISO C++ compliance, and UWP, including universal drivers, is not going away no matter how a couple few might hate it. BSD is becoming irrelevant in world at large, so that would just be a waste of time. In any case, the bazaar has proven that it is only technically able to produce UNIX clones.
