Bjarne Stroustrup

Wasn't CFront written in C++?[1] (Of course, the initial version of C with classes was probably written in C.)

What to expect from an AT&T employee?

Which languages do you think guys at Microsoft, Apple and Google get to choose?

Those developed by their employers or others?

Probably the only C++ program he ever wrote.

Out of curiosity to the downvoters, has he NOT written C++ programs? Was his paper in IEEE the other year calling for more static code (let the compiler do its work) and abandonment of the dynamic_cast "let's check at runtime!" development model something he pulled from thin air? Or has he actually written code?
