A simple library for implementing the observer pattern.
The Observable C++ library
by Daniel Dinu
From the article:
Whenever I need to subscribe to events, I usually implement some variation of the observer pattern, or (if available) hack and misuse Qt’s signals and slots mechanism to do the job. Because of this, usually I’m not happy with the results; especially if I misuse QObjects.

A better date and time C++ library
by Marius Bancila
From the article:
C++11 added a date and time utility library called chrono, available in namespace std::chrono and header <chrono>. The problem with it is that the library is a general purpose one and therefore lacks many useful features, such as working with dates, weeks, calendars, timezones and other related features. Fortunately, a rich date and time library based on chrono has been created by Howard Hinnant and is available on github...

We released the first version of PVS-Studio analyzer for Linux. Now Linux developers are getting a new powerful tool to fight bugs in the code.
PVS-Studio for Linux
From the news:
Starting with the 6.10 version, PVS-Studio analyzer supports not only Windows, but the Linux too.
PVS-Studio performs static code analysis and generates a report that helps a programmer find and fix bugs. PVS-Studio performs a wide range of code checks, it is also useful to search for misprints and Copy-Paste errors. Demonstrative examples of such errors: V501, V517, V522, V523, V571, V611.
The new Linux version (.deb, .rpm, .tgz) is available for download on the page: http://www.viva64.com/en/pvs-studio-download-linux/

by Andrew Pardoe
From the article:
Visual Studio “15” Preview 5 now includes the C++ Core Guidelines Checkers. This means you no longer have to install the C++ Core Check package from NuGet to check your code against rules and profiles in the C++ Core Guidelines. Just configure Code Analysis to include the C++ Core Check extensions.
