Luckily, the autobahns were open systems... so they weren't restricted to Volkswagen, and they didn't have to go resurrect Hitler's corpse and convince it to cooperate every time they needed to make a change in them. C# has neither advantage. If the Autobahns were built like C# you'd need to take a blood test before you could get the transceiver for your good German vehicle to let you on them. Of course C++ is more like a bunch of temporary military roads and emergency pontoon bridges that you drive over in convoys so you've got all the kit you need for field-expedient repairs. But at least anyone can hitch a ride. If these were the only options I would be in despair, rather than simply depressed that people honestly think these are the only options. I guess that's fodder for hates-wetware.com. :( > On the other hand, someone can get so good at grepping around the filesystem > that definition lookup doesn't look like a win. Good tools are a good thing, if they're not part of a lock-in strategy.There's stuff above here
