Many organizations question the productivity of the C++ language, citing issues such as long compile cycles or its lack of high-level language facilities. Developers typically turn to Java or .NET, believing that C++ limits their ability to write software that scales, performs and interoperates with the rest of the enterprise.
This white paper discusses the benefits associated with the C++ programming language. Discover how C++ stacks up against Java and .NET environments and explore guidelines for determining whether C++ is the correct tool for a development project. Learn how C++ developers can achieve the following benefits:
The productivity of a modern programming environment.
The performance and scalability for multi-core platforms.
The portability across a broad range of CPU architectures, operating systems and databases.
