Just for the record:

The ANSI/ISO standard for C++ was ratified in 1995. It was in draft form since '91, and the so-called final draft was around for about two years (mostly awaiting Denmark's approval IIRC). It is now 2006. That's more than 10 years (as your Smalltalk numerics library will surely tell you), which makes it a "mature" technology by your own definition of the term.

"So don't pay attention to the approval ratings that say 68% of Americans disapprove of the job this man is doing. I ask you this, does that not also logically mean that 68% approve of the job he's not doing? Think about it. I haven't."

I'm considerably more skeptical about components - (tonytib) - (2) - June 13, 2006, 03:27:47 PM EDT

Well said. - (Another Scott) - (1) - June 13, 2006, 03:48:39 PM EDT

C++ was never about components - (tuberculosis) - (11) - Aug. 21, 2007, 06:02:27 AM EDT

What do you mean, traditionally? - (admin) - (10) - June 14, 2006, 07:58:21 PM EDT
