RE: What's up with C++ (books)?

Same here in the Java/Oracle community. Most people look weird when you open
a book.

-----Oorspronkelijk bericht-----

My experience over the past 10 to 15 years has been that of the people I 
directly work with hardly anyone reads or even buys books. OTOH, this 
has not been true for online discussions.

So, all in all, the best I can make of this is that only relatively few 
people read and buy books. And those few apparently have moved on from 
C++ to other languages. Apart from sounding sensible, is there any 
evidence?
