Re: Is C++ becoming too large and complex?
Nope, I was talking just about Pascal.
Apple moved away from a toy language as the moved away from a toy operating system.
The problem is that there is no standard in commercial Pascal implementations, each one solved the many and varied problems in their own way meaning there was no portability, while the language itself remained pristine and unsullied and unusable so the academics were happy.
Meanwhile, in the real world, C and C++ evolved, and all compilers supported the changes (even VC, eventually).
