Pat. There are a lot of stupid C++ chasers out there. I have even
been told by one manager that [paraphrasing] "Ada is probably a better
language, but we have to move to C++ so we can hire programmers and find
tools." Anyone who would choose C++ over Ada in the pursuit of reliable
software either 1) does not understand C++ or 2) does not understand Ada,
or 3) does not understand either one, or 3) has agenda that has nothing to
do with technological excellence.
