Comment on Organizing Large C Programsparent

Comments

What's this "we"? In the past I've worked on C++ code bases with millions of lines of code. But at RAD we almost exclusively work in C (and assembly, for dozens of platforms). C++ inherited C's broken model for separate compilation with all that implies about physical design for large code bases. As I suggested in the second sentence of my original post, C++ aggravates that problem and therefore calls for special solutions, but there is still plenty of overlap.

None of the context of your experience was in your original comment that talked about C++ organization in a thread about C organization. Sorry there was a misunderstanding.
