I was a C++ programmer in the 90s and back then Java was going to make C++ obsolete overnight. 25 years later and I'm still being paid to write C++.
You can add Windows to the list of massively important projects written in C++
C++ is dying, yet C++ conferences are getting more popular and more expensive to attend.
I've been hearing "C++ is on its way out" for literally my entire 20+ years of programming life and it has yet to happen. On the other hand, the vast majority of proposed replacements have come, had their 15 minutes in the sun, and then slid into irrelevancy. I do not fear for my C++ career unless AI somehow figures it out, which I'm yet to see.
C++ is slowly snails pace being taken over by Rust. But C++ will remain the king of lowest level programming
Happy 400th! Thanks for all the hard work supporting and promoting c++!
C++ is definitely still evolving in meaningful ways. But the language is severely held back by past decisions and issues it inherited from C.
Why is Pascal almost a dead language? Is it too similar to c++ ?
There are more car Maintenance Mechanics than there are Mechanical Engineers building cars. That doesn't mean that Mechanical Engineering is dying. I think the same principle applies here. There are still C language developers maintaining drivers and kernel for compute devices. I think C++ has found its niche. It is not the tool for all scenarios.
C++ is not dying, it is me dying learning modern C++ at my 40th...
It's also being used widely in autonomous vehicles! :D We are using it here at Volvo Trucks!
I will pour one out for ol' C++
Unreal Engine is in C++ of all the languages. It's not gonna be dead. Unity just committed seppuku with their latest decision, people are migrating to UE, and therefore C++. That's, like, a million programmers coming to C++ over the next few years.
C++ to other memory managed languages is like a knife to a blender. Yes you have to type more to get the same thing, but sometimes, actually many times you want the power to control of what you are cutting exactly the way you want. C++ will be here as long as performance and energy are constraints to computation. The day we don't have performance and energy constraints on computation (maybe quantum computing?, idk), that day c++ dies.
My personal opinion is that the new language and library features are good enough to draw in a lot more users, but consuming libraries and plugins needs serious attention--which should be addressed by C++ modules. It appears they are working on making them as good as C# modules, per this open source project: ifc-spec
Happy 400th! Thanks for making this beautiful language even more exciting, interesting and more beautiful! ❤
Congratulations on reaching 400!!
I feel like if you wanna work on all the most interesting and important software projects, you gotta know your C++.
According to Bjarne people have been saying each year that C++ is dead up to 40 years now and it's still going strong
Thank you for sharing Jason!
