C++11: The Downfall of C

Name: Anonymous 2012-07-10 0:25

Now that C++11 is beginning to appear in popular compilers, C is becoming less relevant. C is now useful only to kernel writers and embedded systems programmers. You will not achieve employment with C as long as C++11 exists.

Prepare your anus.

In five years we will all be using LoseThos, the only CIA-backdoor-free OS.

...which was developed on Windows.

Windows is actually a pretty capable OS. Don't even mention supercomputers or headless servers as though that is any mark against Windows in its preferred use case.

It's non-free, sonny.  Can you really trust a US-based company?

1. I don't care I can afford it.
2. I trust only US-based companies.

1. That's not what ,,non-free'' is about, sonny.  It's about freedom.
2. You are either trolling or severely misguided.

confirmed for tinfoil hat neckbeard basement dweller. you have no idea what OS security is or how it is maintained. you think a toy OS made by a fellow neckbeard makes you impervious to security threats

we got sweating white trash fail going on here

Sarcasm in writing is difficult to understand because it is ambiguous.

It is not necessary, but a need? When do you need to use dynamic allocation? To allocate memory for a popup dialog that says memory allocation failed? I bet you do allocate memory for dialogs, am I right? That's only a need to make up for shoddy programming skills and that's ok with me, as long it's not me doing it. Maybe another examples calls for dynamic allocation. Let's say you open 25000 images in photoshop, oh no, bad example...it would be better if photoshop limited the amount of memory to use by a setting, I wouldn't want to know what would happen if photoshop tries to 25K images, would it crash, would my unsaved work be saved?

Your turn, give an example where it is a good idea.

Dynamic allocation is for when you do not know in advance how much memory to allocate.

That's a bad reason, if you can not know how much resources that will be needed in theory (as in it's impossible), you should at least limit any hoarding of resources to sensical limits. If not, your little app could swap out the entire system. Still lazy, you should rather let it be configurable by the user. Then if doing that then it makes sense to allocate it all on the heap directly and make sure it's locked in physical memory, to guarantee that the resources a user has configured your program to handle, actually has been acquired and can be used.

The most important L4 implementations are written in C++.

but the application should be able to adapt to the memory constraint of any host machine, rather than be specialized for one.

There are too many cases where you need dynamic memory allocation/freeing. Let's say you need to load a resource into memory, do something with it, and then remove it from memory. Use your fucking imagination. Sage.
