Code Analysis++

Tuesday, October 26 • 7:45am - 8:45am

by Anastasia Kazakova

Summary of the talk:

Martin Fowler once wrote that high-quality software is actually cheaper to produce than low-quality software. We agree with that sentiment, and we warmly welcomed the C++ Core Guidelines when they were introduced in 2015. Research and surveys conducted in the C++ Community consistently demonstrate the popularity of the Clang family of tools, as well as the growing demand for static analysis to be added to code editors.

In this talk, we’ll explore the current capabilities of existing C++ static analyzers and discuss some of the enforcements listed in the C++ Core Guidelines from a toolability aspect. We’ll also look into the recent “Simplify C++” trend in the language’s evolution, and to wrap things up we’ll take a look at how technology-specific analysis (like MISRA and AUTOSAR) is being adopted.

A variety of checks will be discussed, from catching a dangling pointer to conforming to the preferred code style and naming scheme. And I want to share a crazy idea I have about gamifying static analysis. Let’s play!

From the article:

With the talk listing published, and the schedule coming soon, I'd like to highlight the student and support tickets for Meeting C++ 2021.

For a few years now Meeting C++ has hosted programs to give students, underrepresented folks and those who can't afford a ticket access to the conference. This is supported through the ticket sales and some times sponsorships...

With the online platform being selected, its finally time to open the call for sponsors for Meeting C++ 2021!

Sponsoring is an easy way to support the work of Meeting C++, as my work is mostly funded through the ticketsales and sponsorships of the yearly Meeting C++ conference. So maybe your employer is interested in sponsoring Meeting C++ 2021?

Voting results and the Top 10 talks for Meeting C++ 2021

The results from the voting for this years Meeting C++ conference are in, and published together with the Top10 of talks!

Voting results and the top 10 Talks for Meeting C++ 2021

by Jens Weller

From the article

The Meeting C++ hive mind has spoken, and given the feedback of the C++ community to the submissions of Meeting C++ 2021.

Like in the previous years, one could vote from 0-5 for each talk and leave a comment if you'd like on each talk. The talks are randomized in Order, and not every voting session has finished the full stack of talks to vote on. The result below is then achieved by weighing the votes from 0-5 as {-3,-2,-1,1,3,4}, this gives the talks that folks want to see a bit of an edge, while the negative numbers help to keep the range of the end result a bit closer. Having bought a ticket before the voting starts does give you a higher voting weight, as you'll be attending the conference.
