Safer C++: Let’s explore the latest MISRA guidelines @ QtGreece

We are happy to announce our next meetup will be at QtGreece!
QtGreece will host 3 talks, all related to C++.
We strongly encourage our members join the entire event.

Safer C++: Let’s explore the latest MISRA guidelines by Dimitris Platis

C++ is a powerful language, but its flexibility comes with risks, especially in safety-critical systems.
In this talk, we will delve into the latest 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
• Risky 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++.
