From the article:

... a hot C++ conference season kicked off again with CppCon. Pacific++, C++ CoreHard, Meeting C++, ADC, code::dive, and the C++ Committee meeting in San Diego, California, are coming up later this year...

... Today we are starting a new section in our regular C++ Annotated. In each issue, we will cover a selection of C++ proposals and initiatives you definitely should learn about while developing in C++. This time we unveil static exceptions, constexpr new, and lifetime checks. See details below...

Milestone | New Home | Trip Reports

by Jon Kalb

From the article:

At the formal closing of CppCon 2018, we took a moment to consider how far we’ve come in the first five years of the conference. Those years have seen us grow in so many ways. Since our first conference, we’ve added classes, field trips, author signings, exhibitor tables and booths, Tool Time, and the SG14 co-located ISO meeting. The number of main program sessions has grown by about fifty percent to almost one hundred fifty.  The number of Open Content sessions has doubled to about two dozen. The number of conference days (including classes)  has doubled from four and a half to nine and the number of attendees has doubled from about six hundred to over twelve hundred.

Trip report - CppCon 2018

by Jean Guegant

From the article:

New year, new conference! This time, my employer, King, helped me to organize a first pilgrimage to CppCon for me and another colleague. You cannot fathom how enthusiastic I was to finally making it there! Although I might be a bit late on the "trip-report-race", I think that it is still worth to relate my overall experience of the event and then move onto a list of recommended talks you should watch-out on Youtube...

ACCU 2019 Call for Papers -- ACCU

By Felix Petriconi | Oct 7, 2018 11:19 AM | Tags: community

The ACCU 2019 is now putting together its program, and they want you to speak on C++. The ACCU has a strong C++ track, though it is not a C++-only conference. If you have something to share, check out their

Call for Papers

by the ACCU

From the article:

Historically, ACCU has a lot of C++ and C content, and is proud of that: ACCU is the foremost annual conference for people interested in C++ and C, at least in and around the UK. But it is not just a C++ and C conference, ACCU is about programming in whatever language people are using, with whatever tools and processes people are using: D, Chapel, Java, Kotlin, C#, F#, Groovy, Rust, Go, Python, Ruby, Lisp, to name just a few programming languages about which there have been sessions at ACCU conferences. Git, Mercurial, CMake, Meson, TDD, BDD, allthese tools and techniques have been the focus of sessions at ACCU. The ACCU Conference is looking for sessions that will be interesting to people who create software.

The keynote speakers are M. Angela Sasse, Kate Gregory, Paul Grenyer and Herb Sutter.

The Call for Papers lasts for about 3 weeks and will close on Friday 2018-10-26T23:59+01:00.

CppCon 2018 is now over. While our memories are still fresh, we’d like to share our impressions of this year’s installment of CppCon.

JetBrains C++ team about CppCon 2018

by Anastasia Kazakova

This year's edition was unique and exceptional for many reasons:

  • Highly technical keynotes on Concepts, Lifetime, Spectre issues and more.
  • C++ developers on stage accepting an Academy Award!
  • A whole selection of great talks, some are covered in the trip report.
  • New Lightning Challenge format (our team was glad to take it and shared the impression in the report).

Our team is also running a survey at CppCon on a regular basis, no exception this year. Find the results on most popular standard and compiler inside.
