C++ still has so much life in it, and will be around for many, many more years to come - in so many places. There may be parts of the mainstream computing world where it won't really keep up - but there are still huge trunks of computing which cannot function without it. I personally moved to a cross-platform C++-based framework to solve all my problems, and am thoroughly enjoying having high performance apps running on all the things. It's a very productive technology, this.
