Looking for an interactive way to learn modern C++? Have a look at my in-person training at CppNorth 2023:

https://cppnorth.ca/workshop-fromc-tocpp.html

Meet me in Toronto!

#cpp #CppNorth #training

In today’s @CppNorth talk "Using Sender/Receiver to Implement Control Flow for Async Processing" (9 AM MDT), Steve Downey will explore how the components & connectors for C++26's Sender/Receiver framework are to fit together

We are excited to have Bill Hoffman speaking about CMake at the CppNorth conference. His talk covers the latest in C++20 modules in #CMake. For more information, visit: http://ow.ly/OcnF50OlCUN #cpp #CppNorth

In today’s @CppNorth talk "Exceptionally Bad" (11:00 AM MDT), Peter Muldoon will discuss the original intent of exceptions & how their mechanics work, as well as cases of exception misuse + some better ways to handle each situation

In today’s @CppNorth talk "C++ Modules” (2:30 PM MDT), @Bloomberg’s Daniel Ruoso will explore the challenges that header units, as specified in C++20, create for implementers, plus some possible solutions to those challenges

It's nice to have people on campus again! C++ is happening now! Check out their video from past years at the Center: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Um2pH_fLv6o #CppNorth @CppNorth #cpp #cpp23

In today’s @CppNorth talk "Requirements for C++ Successor Languages" (9:00 AM MDT), @Bloomberg engineer @bretbrownjr will discuss how to consider the feasibility & velocity in converting existing #cplusplus projects to the Next Big Thing

Off I go to #CppNorth! The estimated travel time is 27 hours. Excited to give a talk about BLADE, the GPU-based beamforming pipeline of the Allen Telescope Array.

I'll be airing grievances about integers at #CppNorth in Aspen in May https://CppNorth.org/ I got a lot of problems with you people and now you're gonna hear about it!

The CppNorth 2023 Call for Submissions is now open!

Today, during @CppNorth 2022 (11 AM MDT), Peter Muldoon will share some of the key lessons he's learned about how to successfully redesign a legacy system during his 30-year career as a software engineer

The style of `const unsigned int` is named "const west". `unsigned int const` is "east const". This style debate has split the C++ community. My compromise style was rejected, I feel, without sufficient consideration -- central const: `unsigned const int`. #CppNorth

Get() into Retroactive Static Reflection

15:15 - 16:15 Tuesday 18th July 2023 EDT Knightsbridge
Generic / Metaprogramming

Reflection is a powerful way to create better software with less code. It's also something that's completely missing from standard C++.

Over the course of this talk, we'll build a reflection system from the ground up, all based on a single unifying principle — harnessing function overloading with tag dispatch to define a static, type-safe property system that works unintrusively with any existing C++ codebase.

This will involve a whole lot of functions called get().
