D-Pointers and the PIMPL Idiom

The C++ Core Guideline recommends: For stable library ABI, consider the Pimpl idiom.

This month, we'll have a quick chat about ABI compatibility, then look at the PIMPL and D-Pointer idioms.

Doors open: 5:30pm for a 6pm start.

Note: after 6pm, you will need to add comment below, or in Slack (https://melbournecpp.slack.com/) (use this form (https://goo.gl/forms/GwK1pIzzXHFnAa8b2) to join) to get through the automatic glass door (shown in red below) on Level 24. After 6:30pm the elevators won't allow you up to Level 24 anymore.
