C++ has been a popular and comprehensive language for a long time. It's highly compatible with C and very little has been deprecated in the language, for better or worse. The history and design of C++ has made it to a highly portable language, and the evolution of modern C++ has ensured that it will stay that way for a long time to come. C++ is a living language and compiler vendors are currently doing a remarkable job to implement new language features rapidly.
