> Comparison is not valid, since I'm considering many new projects. If C++ had never been considered for new projects, it would have been in sharp decline, which it is not. What I said was that most of the growth has been elsewhere, like in web where there is hardly any C++, and mobile apps, where there is relatively little C++ (some on iOS, but Objective C dominates there). My main point was that as long as the whole industry is in growth, you may not notice that the world has moved on, at least not if you measure the health of X by the "still new projects in X".
