Where C++ is used?

Hi

I wished to become C++ developer but now I am java / j2ee developer.

So I know where are the places java / j2ee used . That is for example in banking domain Java is used as a programing language with JSP as front end and oracle or something as backend. Here EJBeans are used for server side programming. So i can develop all client and server transaction.
This is one of the domain. Likethis Java / J2EE is used in so may places.

But i donot knwo and i couldnot understand that where C++ is used and how?

Can any body explain me in few lines like above where it is used and how?

It will very help full for me to understand the basic of C++

Thanks & regards

Pretty much anywhere that a high-level language is desired but the overhead incurred by running in a VM (like Java or .NET) is not.

Games, operating system guis, kernal is probably straight C but possible to do in C++, business software tho I think cobol still used fairly heavily in this domain, databases, office applications, compilers, media players and much more.

Taking your example above:

The Oracle DBMS is programmed in C or C++.

The JVM that is running your JAVA programs is programmed in C or C++.

The Operating System that the applications are running on are programmed in C or C++.

Sorry for writing "C or C++", they are definitely two separate languages even though the areas where they are used are often the same and you find quite a lot of code written in a mixture of both (C++ programs using C libraries).

I am a professional developer in New York. OVer the years I have worked with many financial/banking companies here including some Wall Street firms.

There is a lot more C++ code in use than Java, so I wam curious where you got your information.....

C/C++ is also used a lot in embedded & real-time environments.

Bjarne says... lots of places...

Actually most games major games these days (at least that I've seen/heard any details about) use C++. MS has used it for windows since at least about Win95. I'm also pretty sure KDE is written mostly in cpp, not sure about any of the major *nix distros.

Hi

I thank all for their replies

I got more

If you're talking about Windows, many, if not most of those third-party libraries in the form of DLL's and ActiveX controls are written using C or C++, even though they are designed to be used by any language.

The Symbian operating system for mobile phones (including Series 60 and UIQ) are written in C++

also you will dealing with C++ even while you are working with PHP. all the libraries (DLLS) that are used in PHP like GDI have been Written with C++.

Also most of the games Games that you play are C++. also the engine behind the games (like Physics Engine or other Game Engines like Ogre, Allegro, ClanLib, GameBryo, Medusa, Realm Crafter Pro Edition ...). WOW ... Ogre is my favorite (amongst the open-source engines)!

Most of the offical applications e.g. anti virus, anti spam, anti hack, accounting, math programs, chemistry applications, physics simulators, engineering applications are written with c++ not java.

even when we speak in the area of the games C# is behind the C++.
