I'm not declaring that C++ is better for everything. In our case it is better because it makes this part of the infrastructure more sustainable: there are more engineers who can code well in C++ vs C in our company and industry overall. Also it is easier to code in C++ as it is general purpose programming language with a lot of libraries available, open source projects, community around it etc.

Maybe we program in different verticals. I have not found it to be so. (I have still upvoted your comment).

I value your opinion.

Well, that is very gracious - esp. here.

I value yours.

You have different experiences than I do - so our conclusions will differ.

That said - I "feel" as if C++ is a dangerous serpent of a language. Maybe I need to spend 6 months re-acquainting myself in complex environments with more developers than just me, and re-evaluate that presumption on a medium-size project.

Thank you.

Your happiness is important to me.
