C/C++ Next Language: Java, C, or C++?

[voko]

Well, Taligent OS was coded in C++. Unfortunately, it never made it out in the wild except as a reference platform for developers after Apple pulled out of the project.

That isn't exactly what I would call "popular".

And windows

That is the dominant OS where I come from. Mac users are frowned upon for only using one button,

Oh. another advantage is that c++ is on the dot net framework so it will run on Xboxes, windows an windows phone. c++ also goes straight to the cpu or something (I heard it works a lot faster because of this).

Which version of Windows is coded in C++? What is the source of your information?

While there is a non-standard version of C++ that works on top of the .net CLI, that is not true of the standard C++.

Standard C++ compilers do typically generate machine code, even though the GNU compiler also supports a virtual machine.

Thread closed. There is far too much misinformation in this thread as of late, and the discussion has verged very far from the original topic.
