What I meant was that there could be a tool that in webdesign gave you the range of using templated stuff, but allowed a lot of customization to advanced webdesign. It is not my thing as you might figure, but in native programming both C/C++ are very versatile.
Ofc I wouldn't allow direct memory acess either. You should pardon my lousy ability to express myself
Hmmm.
It sounds like ASP.NET to me-- I have access to pretty much the entire .NET library-- all the math functions, file functions, string handling, and so on, and all of this can be utilized in pumping out web pages.
If you have access to the server's OS (i.e. if you are running the server, and especially if you have a GUI remote to it), there really are no limits to what you can do. I'm running an Azure Virtual Machine (i.e. an online device as opposed to a particular box with "Benjamin" written on a piece of white tape on the front), and I have complete access to the OS. I could definitely write code in C, have .NET helper apps running in the background monitoring files and folders and doing neat stuff. For example, if I were writing code to process large video files that people had uploaded, I might very well decide it was worth going to C++ for that lower-level access to the RAM.
