C++ has no inline asm, and there is no official syntax. There's only an 
"asm" keyword. That's it. You can have an official, standards compliant C++ 
compiler which launches all out nuclear assault upon seeing the asm keyword.

Many, but by no means all, C++ compilers implement an inline asm as an 
extension.

D already has better RTTI than C++.
