You really on an entire stack that is programmed and maintained in languages like C, and to the degree that these are provided for whatever chipset you are using, yes you can code in C++. And of course you expect these libs to be regularly patched and updated, and released as new platforms become available, etc. I'm not saying "don't code in higher level languages". I'm saying that not everyone can code in higher level languages. There is a whole stack that needs maintenance and development.
