Quote of the week
Looking at http://criticalmass.sourceforge.net/kernel.php
I see that writing C++ modules (or other langs) could be done in a clean way.
But using c++ for core kernel would involve a total redesign of kernel in a object oriented way. The problem is not on language, and if C is better of C++, the question is on the way you attack a problem in C and the way you do it in C++.
Yes, C++ do a lot of work behind, but if you know what happen, you can control even this. C approach, instead is to see everything coded cleanly ..
I swiched to C++ no long time ago, and I found I can write good code if I constantly take in mind what happen after compiling the code, so I found C++ way not so limited.
But Linux is wrote in C, there are no question here.
