Hi Guys
Well as I was going through the sources and it struck me that that the entire kernel is an implementation of the oops concepts on c. The concepts of inheritannce, functional and data abstraction, data hiding, data given a priority than functions i.e data encapsulated by functions etc....are applied in c. So why dont they convert it to c++. Furthermore the designing and implemantation would be enhanced with the various uml tools available. why c and not c++ i dont understand? anyway as an attempt to understand the kernel and to investigate this question i have begun to modify my kernel to an object oriented one(c++ wise ). if anyone has strong arguements on why my attempt may be or may NOT be rewarding, please let me know.
