Everyone seems to have misunderstood what I want. I'm a Python developer, I don't give a rats ass about what people say about C#, Python, or c++, they all have their uses. My main reasoning for considering C++ as the backend is some things (reading memory for example) are much easier to do in C++ than in Python, and we already have a lot written in C++. The argument about robustness, has nothing to do with how nicely formatted the language is, or how great the tracebacks are, it's strictly about how high the memory cost is and how much CPU it's going to take. Python is well known for being high on memory and C++ being compiled can be a lot faster for things. Anyways, thanks for everyones feedback, we will most likely go with a combination of Python and C++. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
