Just like, yes. Exactly the same thing as, no. The details matter
here. There's a lot of code to make this happen.

No.
: Any one did or knows how to do this ?
I've done C++ in the kernel before. IT is realtively easy to get very
basic functioanlity. You won't have streams, exceptions, etc.
However, to have all the features of C++ would take a lot of work.
