**Safer C++: 25 MISRA Rules Explored**

C++ is a powerful language, but its flexibility comes with risks, especially in safety-critical systems.

We will delve into 25 MISRA C++ rules, see practical code examples, and discuss how these guidelines can lead to safer systems.

MISRA C++:2023 defines a safer, more predictable subset of C++17, helping developers to avoid:

\- Undefined behavior
\- Relying on unspecified or implementation\-defined behavior
\- Potentially dangerous coding practices the language "allows"
\- Subtle bugs stemming from common misunderstandings of the language

While some rules may seem restrictive or opinionated, C++ developers may benefit from keeping them in mind even for general-purpose C++.
Let's explore and reflect on these guidelines together and get some new ideas of how to write safer C++.

**The Speaker:**
Dimitris Platis calls himself a Software Engineer and a Maker. He works with embedded systems of all shapes and sizes running some kind of Linux, from Yocto to AOSP (Android).
In the evenings he likes to tinker on open source projects ([github.com/platisd](https://github.com/platisd)) and blog about them (platis.solutions/blog).
Dimitris works primarily with C++ and also offers C++ training courses for companies, with customers including large corporations from the automotive, semiconductor and defense sectors.

**Short talk: It's dangerously verbose to go alone - take this**

Showcasing some of the surprisingly many use cases for explicit object member functions / deducing this.

Keywords: explicit object member functions, deducing this, c++23
Duration: 10-15 mins

**The Speaker:**
Stephan Roslen enjoys delving into the more obscure aspects of C++ and is keen to grasp every feature of the language. He likes to apply them in creative ways to produce concise, comprehensible code that performs well on real hardware.
