C++ coroutines: Managing the reference count of the coroutine state
by Raymond Chen
From the article:
Last time, we hooked up the co_await of the simple_task and we had a brief glimpse into the the management of the reference count on the promise (and therefore also the coroutine state). Today we’ll fill in the rest of the story...

C++ coroutines: Awaiting the simple_task
by Raymond Chen
From the article:
Last time, we accepted the parameter passed to co_return and stored it into our promise. This time, we’ll deal with the consumption side and wait for the answer to appear...

New video on the CopperSpice YouTube Channel:
Class Completion
by Barbara Geller and Ansel Sermersheim
About the video:
In this video we look at the fascinating topic of class completion. The idea of when a class is complete seems fairly simple, but a "class-complete context" is more complicated. We have some cool examples to illustrate the interesting places a class is considered complete.
Please take a look and remember to subscribe!

Finding Bugs with AddressSanitizer: MSVC Compiler
by Augustin Popa
From the article:
The AddressSanitizer (ASan) is generally available for MSVC since the recently-released Visual Studio 2019 version 16.9. We’ve already shown how easy it can be to find bugs in even production-ready code like EASTL. Here I’ll share an example of how it found a real bug in the MSVC compiler itself.
The idea was straightforward: ASan finds bugs, and we’re always interested in finding bugs in the compiler. Just like you can turn ASan on in your projects and run your tests, we’ve been turning on ASan on our project (the compiler) and running it on our tests. Sure enough, this found bugs...

C++ coroutines: Accepting types via return_void and return_value
by Raymond Chen
From the article:
Last time, we built the result holder for our simple_task coroutine and showed how to move values into the holder and move them back out.
So now we’re actually going to move them in...
