Any sane modern language gives you that. Why C++?


Because I don't think we can implement a reasonable device model using a garbage collected language. Garbage collection introduces non-determinism and in QEMU we need to ensure that when we're running in a VCPU context, we exit back to the guest as quickly as possible.

My answer is that C++ is the only language that allows you to evolve away from C, with mixed C/C++ source (not just linkage level compatibility). If there are others, I want to know about them.
