Things have thankfully stagnated, Java, Ruby, python, etc. are C++ knockoffs, often with some Perl regex stuff rolled in. So, if you are going to write code, you have to be nimble. Yes, and I don't quite see the point in it. I haven't really seen any improvement in tools since Borland released C++ Builder 12 or so years ago. Their IDE is still better than anything on the market, by a wide margin if you ask me. Does the world really need c#? I don't think so. And frankly, I think Java was a step backward from C++. But that's just me. As to regex, there are perfectly good regex functions in c that will do everything you need to do. I talked w/ a guy the other day who was coding in Ruby and just wondered why the hell anyone would do it.
