Hi,
>From this thread I got the impression that most people
here think that C++ is still that language which has
no standart, used by small groups of people and is
realy useless. Well guys... IT IS NOT THE 80s
ANYMORE!!! It is year 2000 and C++ is a standartized
language which is used by a VERY large amount of
people. The GNU compiler, g++, supports *_well_* 99.9%
of the standard C++ (including templates, I have a
library (really it is header files) which has only
template classes, and a lot of them. Guess what, g++
compiles applications using it *_very well_*).
Also, exprience has proven that using an OO design for
large software packages is MUCH more efficient than
plain function based design.
Someone said that because gtk+ uses its own
implementation of an OO architecture in plain C, there
is no reason to it to use C++. WHAT??? Reading it
causes someone to think that C++ is just some
libraries added to C which uses structures to
implement classes, container classes, etc.. This is
hell wrong! There is a big diffrence between a C++
class and a C struct: PRIVELEGE CONTROL!! In C
everyone can directly intefere with any variable in
the program, same with gtk+ which written in C. In C++
I can make some variable in a class private or
protected, and only the methods of this class will be
able to intefere with it. It makes the code MUCH less
buggy.
Thx,
Ilya 'rilel' Khayutin.
