using std::cpp 2025 closing keynote: C++ as a 21st century language - Bjarne Stroustrup

By jdgarcia | Jun 19, 2025 10:43 PM | Tags: modern c++ c++23

From the video introduction:

By now, C++ is a language with a long history. 

Bjarne Stroustrup presents C++ as a coherent whole where strongly-typed generic programming has a central role, where code is presented as modules, resources are never leaked, and error-handling is systematic. Code written along these lines tend to be smaller, faster, more maintainable, and more reliable that code reflecting 20th century thinking.

With this announcement the keynotes for this years Meeting C++ conference are complete!

Announcing the 3rd Keynote for Meeting C++ 2025: its Anthony Williams!

by Jens Weller

From the article:

Today I have the honor to announce that Anthony Williams completes the keynotes for Meeting C++ 2025!

Anthony Williams is well known for his book "C++ Concurrency in Action", has been an active in the committee through the BSI since 2001. He is well known for his work on concurrency and one of the architects and implementers of std::thread and other concurrency features in C++. He gave an An introduction to multithreading in C++20 at Meeting C++ 2022 in the online track. I am looking forward to welcome Anthony in person in Berlin this year!

The voting on the talks for Meeting C++ 2025 has begun!

This week the voting for the talks at Meeting C++ 2025 starts!

The voting on the talks for Meeting C++ 2025 has begun!

by Jens Weller

From the article:

Once again its time for the C++ community to take a look at the submitted talks for Meeting C++ 2025! Thanks to all folks who have submitted a talk to this years conference! Your contribution will create another great conference in Berlin and online! And special thanks to all folks who have bought tickets already for the conference, you'll have a bit more weight in the voting to shape this years program!

With your voting session you can contribute to the talk selection for this years conference. In total 107 talks are submitted by 73 speakers. With this year the call for talks closes earlier than in the past, when for a few years it had extended to match the submission date with CppCon. Since last year CppCon has moved its deadline into early/mid May, which is a bit too early. For the future I plan to have the call for talks close around the beginning of June. A period of 2 months to submit should be enough, also this allows for an earlier release of the program. This than gives speakers more time to get their talks ready and Meeting C++ more time to advertise the program...

Lightning Talk: Strategies for Developing Safety-Critical Software in C++

by Emily Durie-Johnson

Summary of the talk:

This talk delves into the importance of a safety-first mindset in software development within the medical device domain. It explores the intersection of C++ and industry standards that ensure safety-critical software.

From the article:

As you may not be aware about this opportunity, I wanted to highlight that the Vienna House Andel's Berlin Hotel offers accessibility rooms for those who need them.

Meeting C++ in Berlin has been visited by folks in wheel chairs, and I thought I highlight this possiblity. Recently when looking through pictures provided by my hotel contact, I've seen aboves picture of an accessible bathroom, which sparked my interest in finding out more about them. While I knew they existed, I didn't know the Hotel has actually 14 rooms of them, and that they each have a twin room for an assistant to stay. So if such a room is needed for your stay, wether you bring a wheel chair or not - now you know that its possible...
