Well that proves the troll's assertion that C++ is in face dying.... Is
it really so?
Most trading and financial systems are still developed with C++ as well
as other major, distributive, real-time applications. However, C++
execution powers will soon oblivate, for computer power is increasing
lavishly .... .
Where do you people think C++ will be useful in, let's say, 5 -10 years
from now?
And please, no answers such as: legacy code, academic institutions, the
most obfuscates code contest, etc.
