A good programming language is far more than a simple collection of features. My ideal is to provide a set of facilities that smoothly work together to support design and programming styles of a generality beyond my imagination. Here, I briefly outline rules of thumb (guidelines, principles) that are being applied in the design of C++0x. Then, I present the state of the standards process (we are aiming for C++09) and give examples of a few of the proposals such as concepts, generalized initialization, being considered in the ISO C++ standards committee. Since there are far more proposals than could be presented in an hour, I'll take questions.

Dr. Bjarne Stroustrup is the original designer and implementer of the C++ Programming Language.

Q&A

• Do you think you'll ever design a new language from scratch?
• How long after the standard is out do you expect to see a production compiler?
• Is it possible to do garbage collection cleanly and efficiently in C++?
• How soon after you created C++ did you see it start to take over the industry?
• Is there any particular naming convention you subscribe to?
• What's your opinion about the Microsoft implementation of C++?
