Is C++ Unmanaged?
- by Chris Becke
Am I the only one bugged by the phrase "unmanaged c++"?
I think the phrase is implicitly insulting, and is designed to be so.
Stroustrup never wrote "The Design and Evolution of Unmanaged C++" and the not unmanaged C++ standards committee is not working on "UC++1x".
Maybe I should disingeneously invent a suite of languages called "Faster" purely so I can refer to any language I want to implicitly denigrate with a "Slow" prefix.
"Oh, youre using Slow CSharp? Shame!"
