July C++ Meetup: Cross-Compiling for Windows & Boost ASIO

Details

For the next meetup we will have two presentations:

Cross-Compiling for Windows

Abstract:

This talk will describe how to use open-source tools to cross-compile C code on a Mac (or any *nix system) into 64-bit Windows executable programs and shared libraries (DLLs). Topics will include basic executables, commonly-used libraries, and DLLs that can be integrated into Microsoft Office (Excel, Word, Access, Powerpoint etc) via VBA.

Bio:

Matt Wong is the founder of Guarnerix, a startup company providing solutions for managing heterogeneous data. Prior to Guarnerix, he spent a decade at JPMorgan as an investment banker in their Securitized Products Group. He has also worked as a programmer, consultant and marketing manager, is a CFA® charterholder, and holds a B.S. degree in computer science from Yale University and J.D. and M.B.A. degrees from Columbia University.

Introduction to Asynchronous Programming with Boost ASIO

Abstract:

The presentation will be an overview of Boost Asio programming using the C++03 standard. It will focus on the components of Asio and how they interact, as well as writing correct code that is easily understandable and avoiding some of the more common pitfalls, as opposed to squeezing out every ounce of performance (although some performance-related topics will likely be involved).

Bio:

Brian Davis is a Senior Software Engineer at Ullink and a cofounder of Fairfield County Makers' Guild and Jolly Roger Labs. He programs C++ on everything from low-latency servers to 8 bit microcontrollers, and is particularly interested in what he stubbornly calls Distributed Systems along with robots and anything to do with automating everything.

RSVPs for the meetup will open on June 10th.
