In Windows...

I would never use C++ to program Windows Application.
Talula
What you just plan to pick a fight with me for no reason?

well a lot of applications for windows are STILL MADE IN C++

or C

for example chrome or firefox
Talula
I know but if you need fast turn around you don't use C++ and definetly not C.
Anonymous
sometimes C code is much faster to write
Talula
Unless you want to make CLI applications and nothing to do with GUI.
Anonymous
then higher level langauges

for certain applications
Talula
Have you tried making GUI application in C?
Talula
Is it faster?

Is it faster?
it is easier for sure
Anonymous
it would take me more time to figure out how to do this in python
Talula
Easier to make GUI application in C? Compared to C# or Delphi?
Anonymous
because everything does what you say
Anonymous
you can worry about the low level things
Anonymous
i don't know C# or Delphi
Anonymous
and ignore the higher level abstractions programming langauges make
Talula
I'm sorry... I can't even answer that... beyond me, why in the world Microsoft wasted so much time to make C#, WFP and UWP libraries.
Anonymous
but C++ for making gui it's good
Talula
90% of the world would be idiot according to you... that is fine...
Manuele
because microsoft is trying to deal with idiots
Using c++ where is not needed results in a waste of time and resources with a worse result
Talula
But that is how programming is done, people don't make programs in Assembly...
Manuele
This is true

Actually when you understand the specific C GUI technology, it is very easy to work with it, even if you define your UI completely in code and not with a UI designing tool
Manuele
And with C is even worse

i had certain cases i could only program a thing in ONLY ASM
Talula
i had certain cases i could only program a thing in ONLY ASM
Fine... that is perfectly fine but that is not what the world is doing.
Manuele
You can do everything with asm or C or C++ but that's not a reason to use them for everything
Talula
Most of the people are programming in either Python, Java, JavaScript, C#...

find me 1 OS that does not contain ASM code in it
Roxifλsz 🇱🇹
I know how to program in C++ GUI and it's not easy, you have to remember lots of things.
Not hard for me, especially if you have proper code completion and the documentation is solid, for example in Qt or wxWidgets

and most people get paid little for programming and programming is turning into a blue collar job were we repurpose people displaced by robotics
Anonymous
What kind of question is that?
a serious one, every single os requires at least a little bit of ASM
Talula
Not hard for me, especially if you have proper code completion and the documentation is solid, for example in Qt or wxWidgets
True... using Qt makes things easy but it's really not native code anymore so you lose the benefit of making a program in C++, use Delphi actually it makes native code and code is as fast as C++ or C.

you can statically link a qt application
Manuele
Qt relies in opengl
Manuele
And opengl is shit
Anonymous
as long as you pay a liscensing fee or you make it opensource
Manuele
That could be a good reason to not using qt
Talula
Qt is an external libary made by external company these things aren't as responsive as Windows native

and false
Talula
no
Oh please...

you can make them faster then windows

windows sucks
Manuele
no
Are you retarded?
Talula
windows sucks
Yes it does but it's the most used OS in the world on a client computer.

no you can change this as well
With low quality bindings with high overhead?

And opengl is shit
>universal and cross platform hardware accelerated graphics are shit Nice meme
