There is absolutely no reason not to use C++ in modern software development. Its nightmarishly complicated and gives you 1000 ways to blow your foot off, and maybe one or two to get the job done properly. After about 18 years of C++ development I still go for C sometimes. C is a lovely language that is much easier to learn. I cannot believe anyone would cheerlead for C++. Its a necessary evil.
