| What I mean is that it is better to adapt a programming style that fits in a context of easy porting, as soon as possible.
If you say that one (or maybe) two projects won't be ported then it means to me that you have every reason to read your c++ material well, to get familiar with modern standards.
From there you will build up a discipline that takes you beyond just coding technique.
Most less seasoned programmers think this is a hard thing to do. But it isn't at all. Don't let the difficult words scare you. Make it easy on you and try to find out what "ANSI C++" means. From there you can make a start. This discipline will give you a headstart.
I also gave you the title of a book. I did that on purpose. The book has an approach where you will be taught to program more or less a slightly better way.
I hope you see now what I am getting at.
