- I have been talking to managers who are very nervous about
- moving to C++. It seems to have a reputation for being
- difficult to master, and those of us who program in C++
- are sometimes considered Gurus.
-
- C++ certainly helps structure large projects, and after
- making the switch I have absolutely no desire to go back
- to C. But it does require a new way of thinking, and it
- has some rather obscure aspects...
-
- What guidelines would you give to a manager who is trying
- to decide whether to use C++ for an new project? Would you
- suggest that a team with average programmers move to C++ ?
- Should a programming team attempt a C++ project if they do
- not have any C++ gurus to fall back on?
