White Paper:
Enterprise C++ Development and Deployment Solutions

There is a strong prevailing myth that for enterprise developers to be productive they must use either Java or .NET.  While there is no debating that Java and .NET are extremely useful, it makes no sense to restrict software development projects to a single language for the same reason that construction workers don’t carry just a hammer to the work site.

With millions of developers still actively writing code in C++, the language is clearly not ready to be pronounced dead. This white paper offers a rebuttal to common C++ myths and provides guidelines for when C++ is indeed the right tool for the job.
