Comment on Why C++ is not my favourite languageparent

Comments

So, you don't use a C++ compiler for your C code?

The old C infrastructure is really outdated already -- you can use C and a very limited subset of C++ (without OO), and be perfectly happy.

No, I'm using GCC.

How's it outdated? Linux kernel is written in it.

As for limited subset, people would push and push the boundaries until your code grows fangs and horns
