I did notice that and Baczoni means Of Bac[z]on.

Yep, well, why not?
Have used it a little in the past (wrote a small 3d library some time ago) but not really in anger.
Now, to enable cross platform development, I've decided to gnaw on the ammunition, as they say, and throw myself into it.
Gosh, isn't there a lot of punctuation?

c++ is great - obviously, while the basics are essential, I recommend you devote time to the STL library, possibly then Boost - both will increase your productivity

Pardon my laziness - but a one sentence overview of what the heck STL and Boost are ?

A sentence requires Subject noun and verb - and hopefully less sarcasm.

Wheels, as those you need not to reinvent. STL and Boost are libraries that make your life easier, and contain a lot of little helpers. Pretty much like some of the basic C# classes.

lol - STL is 'Standard Template Library' - it has a vast number of 'containers' for example, like map<a,b> for a dictionary/associative array, an (almost decent) string type, algorithms etc, while Boost Libraries are a fantastic collection of libraries/tools - here's the URL http://www.boost.org/[^]

I have passed C++ exams (at Uni) & interviews but don't really feel happy with it. I have never felt the need to write something in C++ one firm I worked for the software guy was if it's not C++ it won't work despite my doing everything in C# a lot quicker. Mostly as I tend to think I need to so & so I know how do it in one language and translate it. I don't think that works with C++...

You have never used a pointer, then. Pointers make happy.

Oh I have used a pointer as it was one of the few ways to get at the memory address to interface to outside world. Personally I never found pointers as confusing as some do (I am an old school basic programmer who used peek & poke a lot, I guess  ).
|

I was serious, pointers do make happy. Is there something comparable in C# (I am an oldskool C++ programmer, so ...) ? There is probably no use of it.

Well Pointers do exist and you can use them (expect to banished to a dark corner if you) with P/Invoke but I never have (well once for a demo in house using the Parallel Port) and you can use them (I am told) for accessing DLL's (but why?)... So they exist but are not really used (like appendix!)

In C++ pointers indicate where something is. In C# they indicate where it was
(Unless you pin them down, things can wander around)

Do you think you are a better software engineer that the folks that wrote the C# compiler? Can you see a marked improvement in efficiency? I doubt it.
I liked pointers when I coded in C++ but have not yet found a reason where I just couldn't do something without using pointer arithmetic. If I do find a situation where I need pointers I can always implement that bit of code using them.

I have never talked about better or worse, which is a pretty useless discussion (use the right tool for the right problem).
I merely mentioned that pointers make happy.

The C# compiler is written in C++, by the way.

Irrelevant what language it is written in as long as it does the job.

Actually, it is relevant this time. Not to the product, but to the discussion. Specifically, it shows that

either makes no sense, or is unclear enough that I completely misunderstood it (or maybe even both).
