It isn't.
- maccard 8mo agoAnd yet GCC and MSVC both refuse to break ABI and have done so for over a decade.
- PaulDavisThe1st 8mo agoSome of us have been writing code for quite a bit longer than that. The 2000's and C++ were a clusterfuck largely for this very reason.
- maccard 7mo agoI’ve been writing c++ since before then too. A lot has changed in the world, notably package managers are actually used with c++ these days.
- gpderetta 7mo agoMSVC used to break library ABI pretty much on every release. They stopped after overwhelming customer demand.
