Hey guys,

I'm brand-new to the C/C++ languages. I'm very interested in pursuing using C/C++ to create windows applications (and other stuff too) rather than use Visual-Basic.

I have one concern, though:

C++ has been around for a bit of time now. Please be honest: Do you think C/C++ will be obsolete in the very near future?

The reason I ask is because I don't want to quit my current progranming language (VB6) only to find out that within 5 years that C++ is being made obsolete.

I know no one can prodict the future, but I'm wondering if maybe you more experienced people could give me an honest answer. Thanks.
