Opening Keynote: Bjarne Stroustrup, live in person

From the article:

CppCon 2021 will kick off on Monday, October 25 with Bjarne Stroustrup delivering the opening keynote live in person in Aurora, Colorado, USA. This is Stroustrup’s first in-person talk in North America since C++20 was completed, just before the pandemic lockdowns began. His talk connects C++’s roots with all the things that make C++20 a historic milestone – it’s not only the biggest release of C++ in a decade, but also the first edition of Standard C++ ever that is “D&E-complete,” containing all of the features (except only unified function call syntax) that Stroustrup described a quarter-century ago in The Design and Evolution of C++ as his goals for C++’s future development, including concepts, coroutines, and modules which in 2021 are for the first time now available as actual realities in production C++ compilers.

CppCon 2021 is proud to be the forum for Dr. Stroustrup’s landmark talk, which he describes as follows: ...

How To Detect Function Overloads in C++17/20, std::from_chars Example--Bartlomiej Filipek

How To Detect Function Overloads in C++17/20, std::from_chars Example

by Bartlomiej Filipek

From the article:

The problem: a library function offers several overloads, but depending on the implementation/compiler, some of the overloads are not available. How to check the existence of an overload? And how to provide a safe fallback?

In this article, I’ll show you a background “theory” and one case - std::from_chars that exposes full support for numbers or only integer support (in GCC, Clang)...

Template Specialization

by Rainer Grimm

From the article:

Templates define the behavior of families of classes or functions. Often it is required that special types or non-types may be treated special. To support this use case, you can specialize templates.

C++20 three-way comparison operator: Part 2--Gajendra Gulgulia

C++20 three-way comparison operator: Part 2

by Gajendra Gulgulia

From the article:

In the first part of the tutorial series, I laid out the motivation behind C++20’s three way comparison operator: <=> and showcased the simplest use case how it can be useful to remove the boilerplate code for comparison operators : ==, >=, <=, !=, >, < if the semantics of the program requires us to implement them and how they can be gotten rid of by using the defaulted version of three way comparison operator...

Beta-Testing of PVS-Studio Plugin for JetBrains CLion

By Andrey Karpov | Jun 29, 2021 05:27 AM | Tags: static code analyzer sast pvs-studio jetbrains clion

To fully test the plugin, you'll need to install both the beta plugin version and the C++ core beta version of the analyzer. There are several ways to install the plugin: from the official repository, from the repository on our site, or using Windows PVS-Studio installer. Below we'll tell you in detail how to do this.

Beta-Testing of PVS-Studio Plugin for JetBrains CLion

by Evgeniy Ovsyannikov, Paul Eremeev

From the article:

We usually recommend running full analysis regularly, such as once a day, at night. In addition to nightly analysis, we highly recommend checking new code immediately after writing it. This way you'll get the best advantage of using the analyzer. To do this, use incremental analysis, which works as follows. A project was changed, a developer runs a build. After successful compilation only modified files will be analyzed. Modified files are the ones that have been changed since the previous analysis.

Template Argument Deduction of Class Templates--Rainer Grimm

Template Argument Deduction of Class Templates

by Rainer Grimm

From the article:

In my last post Template Arguments, I wrote about function template type deduction (C++98) and auto type deduction (C++11). Today I wear more modern hats. I start with automatic type deduction of non-type template parameters and class templates (C++17) and finish with automatic type deduction of concepts (C++20).
