I think you might find C-- fairly lacking in high-level constructs.
It really is designed as an assembly language.

Last summer I wrote a short proposal of a dialect called 'Systems C--'
which would be used by people to write run-time systems, but at the
moment it's just a paper design---no implementation.

I'm quite interested in supporting SIMD with C--, but I have no test
cases and no useful way to come up with test cases.  I start working
again at the end of July.
