Except endless crying about hardware vendors not making drivers for Linux, because lack of stable ABI.
- dralley 4y agoThat's a completely separate problem.
- UncleMeat 4y agoThat's not the language ABI. This is the same term used for two different things. Language ABI is stuff like "this is how name mangling works", "this is how parameters are passed", and "this is the widest integer type."
- still_grokking 4y agoThat makes not sense as the C++ compiler ABI issue is independent of the OS. Also the OS ABIs are usually C ABIs because there is no C++ ABI at all…
- menaerus 4y agoThere is no such thing as C ABI either.
- still_grokking 4y agoI know. https://faultlore.com/blah/c-isnt-a-language/ https://faultlore.com/blah/c-isnt-a-language/ That's why I worded it with "ABIs". ;-)
