Comment on Ask HN: How to refresh on modern features of C++?parent

Comments

If 2001-2002 is old, then what is 'used for 7 years starting 1994'?! :)

I will be curious to read the replies here, as a year ago I was considering different languages and environments for a cross-platform project, and ultimately C# (yes, C#) won out over C++. To be fair the requirements for the project meant that runtime performance wasn't so critical, but preventing the developer - myself! - from making mistakes was.

Maybe it is because of my age, but despite having lots of experience with C++ and a mostly pleasurable love-sometimes hate attitude towards it, I couldn't imagine it making first choice for me these days for new projects.
