hello all,
1st of all, i searched last 12 years archives of comp.lang.c++
because i have some problems. i got some help but not satisfied as i
did not get solution specific to my problem. In the end, searching
archives is a boring & very time-comsuming task BUT it really helps.
actually i have posted this question onto some other newsgroup too but
i am posting it here too because C++ has fascinated me. here is my
question:
i have 2 goals & want to go with one:
1.) i am interested in writing web-based softwares . i want to make one
thing clear that i do not want to become a webmaster or
web-designer/developer. i want to write *web-based software* like
VIAWEB of Paul Graham, (www.paulgraham.com/road.html). do you really
think that C++ is good for that? 2 thing are here:
1. when Paul Graham sold VIAWEB to YAHOO, they rewrote it in C++
but i did not find any
other example using C++. i have found people using <ruby on
rails> <zope> etc.
2. for this kind of software, will i get a job learning C++?
2.) Is C++ useful in OS programming. i have found nearly all the
examples using C?
3.) i am very much interested in doing OS programming (i want to
contribut to HURD/L4
development). is OS programming is a lot more difficult than
writing web-based software
or difficult than anything else?
question is: can i make some money by doing OS programming?
4.) can i make some money (in a job) by using C++? i know companies
want 2 years of
experience. that's the learning curve to C++.
i will really appreciate any kind of help
thanks
