Cobol, Fortran 77, ANSI C and stuff like that lasted a long time -- but they didn't have batteries-included standard libraries, and there was no expectation that they would be maintained against things such as security threats. That just wasn't part of the design of a programming language at the time. (Can a classic programming language specification have a security hole? Absolutely. Consider the case of gets() from C.) |
