On March 16th we have the pleasure to welcome Jonathan O'Connor to our user group. Jonathan learned to program on a TI58 calculator in 1977. He learned C++ 11 years later, and although he moved over to the dark side, writing Java code for 10 years and Ruby for 6, he is now back writing C++ for a small German software house, The Cluster Company GmbH. In his spare time, he plays chess, cooks and communes with his alpacas.
---------------------------
Abstract: Modern C++ is all about templates, but how do you develop that code? This talk looks at some simple and not so simple techniques and tools to help write correct and efficient template code. We look at some tricks to debug template code, both at compile and run time. Then we look at some techniques to test templated code. Finally, we investigate how to see what template instantiations the compiler creates.
