Perhaps the most visible difference is in that in proper C most of the
application level code deals with error checking and resource cleanup,
whereas in proper C++ most of the application level code implements
business logic. Example with two resources, one can easily imagine more.
A resource might be just a dynamically allocated array.
C:
int foo(int arg1, const char* arg2, X* presult) {
A* resource1 = NULL;
B* resource2 = NULL;
int retval;
if (PrepareResourceA(arg1, arg2, &resource1)!=0) {
goto FAILURE;
}
resource2 = PrepareResourceB(arg1, arg2, resource1);
if (!resource2) {
goto FAILURE;
}
if (CombineAB(resource1, resource2, presult)!=0) {
goto FAILURE;
}
// we know that ownership of B has moved over into result:
resource2 = NULL;
retval = 0; // success
goto CLEANUP;
FAILURE:
retval = -1;
goto CLEANUP;
CLEANUP:
if (resource1) {
ReleaseResourceA(resource1);
}
if (resource2) {
ReleaseResourceB(resource2);
}
return retval;
}
In C++, where errors are reported via exceptions, and ownership and
resource cleanup are automatic:
X foo(int arg1, std::string_view arg2) {
A resource1 = PrepareResourceA(arg1, arg2);
B resource2 = PrepareResourceB(arg1, arg2, resource1);
return CombineAB(std::move(resource1), std::move(resource2));
}
