The stl can help you!
Your own error code
by Andrzej Krzemieński
From the article:
I was recently implementing the “classification of error conditions” in my application offered by the functionality behind
std::error_code. In this post I want to share some of my experience and insight.

Have you registered for CppCon 2017 in September? Don’t delay – Registration is open now.
While we wait for this year’s event, we’re featuring videos of some of the 100+ talks from CppCon 2016 for you to enjoy. Here is today’s feature:
The C++17 Parallel Algorithms Library and Beyond
by Bryce Adelstein Lelbach
Summary of the talk:
One of the major library features in C++17 is a parallel algorithms library (formerly the Parallelism Technical Specification v1). The parallel algorithms library has both parallel versions of the existing algorithms in the standard library and a handful of new algorithms inspired by common patterns from parallel programming (such as std::reduce() and std::transform_reduce()).
We’ll talk about what’s in the parallel algorithms library, and how to utilize it in your code today. Also, we’ll discuss some exciting future developments relating to the parallel algorithms library which are targeted for the second version of the Parallelism Technical Specification – executors, and asynchronous parallel algorithms.

The programs for student and accessibility tickets are open until October 15th!
Announcing the Student and Accessibility tickets
by Jens Weller
From the article:
This is the 4th year where Meeting C++ is offering free tickets for students. Since last year, there is also a contingent for the underrepresented and those, not able to afford a Meeting C++ ticket.

This series of articles show the design and implementation of future-like asynchronous computation chains that do not require any dynamic memory allocation or type erasure.
by Vittorio Romero
From the article:
I'd like to show an alternative design [for futures] that doesn't require any allocation whatsoever and still enables users to build up asynchronous computation chains using facilities such as `when_all` and `.then`. [...] The idea behind it is to encode the entire computation chain into a single object with a huge type.

Do YOU remember your first standard meeting?
Trip Report: My first ISO C++ Standards meeting
By Guy Davidson
From the article:
This was my first standards meeting and I didn’t really know what to expect: I’ve read many trip reports but they tend to speak of the results more than the process. This post will describe more of the process.

Trip report: Summer ISO C++ standards meeting (Toronto)
by Herb Sutter
From the article:
A few minutes ago, the ISO C++ committee completed its summer meeting in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. We had some 130 people at the meeting, representing nine national bodies. As usual, we met for six days Monday through Saturday, including several evenings.
The following are some highlights of what we achieved this week...

Make Friends with the Clang Static Analysis Tools
by Gabor Horvath
Summary of the talk:
This talk is an overview of the open source static analysis tools for C++. The emphasis is on Clang based tools. While this talk is not intended to be a tutorial how to develop such tools I will cover the algorithms, methods and interesting heuristics that are utilized by them. Understanding these methods can be really useful as it helps us write more static analysis friendly code and understand the cause of false positive results. It will also help to understand limitations of the currently available tools. I will also present some guidelines how to make a library static analysis friendly, to make clients interested in such tools happy. I will also give a short tutorial on how to use these tools and how to integrate them into the work flow.

What's in C++20 and the C++17 final score card: A report from Kona and look at the Toronto C++ meeting
Posted on July 10, 2017 by Michael Wong.
I am writing this blog long after my trip to the Kona C++ standard meeting due to unusually high business commitments post-meeting and using it as an opportunity to also look ahead to the C++20 content to be reviewed in Toronto. I will publish my usual update to the C++17 content slidedeck similar to my Dec 2016 Issaquah trip report. This will contain the final score card for C++17, including all the features with links, and an evaluation scorecard of what made it in based on what Bjarne had earlier suggested in 2015 as possible content for C++17.

Two new things for the C++ community: a review community and Meeting C++ certified libraries
A C++ review community
by Jens Weller
From the article:
I've been thinking about this for a while, and for now its:
- a C++ community focused on reviewing libraries: r/cpp_review
- a by Meeting C++ provided and supported certification of libraries + a listing of these.
