Why you should use Boost.MultiIndex (Part I)
by David Gross
From the article:
Although Boost.MultiIndex is a pretty old library — introduced in Boost 1.32, released in 2004 — I found it rather unsung and underestimated across the C++ community in comparison to other non-standard containers.
In this article, split into multiple parts, I will highlight all the benefits you can get using boost::multi_index_container instead of the standard containers: faster, cleaner and simpler code.

Compiler Explorer's embedded view
by Matt Godbolt
From the article:
Today I updated Compiler Explorer to support better sharing, specifically to allow embedding a Compiler Explorer view into another site, useful for blog posts that wish to demonstrate how compilers generate code, or how language constructs actually become assembly...

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...

Something new at Meeting C++ this year: a track dedicated to meetups!
Announcing the Lounge Track
by Jens Weller
From the Article:
If you look at the schedule, you might notice two changes. Most visible is that there is now a floor plan for the conference. The other one is very subtle: the breaks now have a hint for a 6th track.

The ACCU 2017 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 Sessions
by the ACCU
From the article:
We have a long tradition of high quality sessions covering many aspects of software development, from programming languages (e.g. C, C++, D, C#, Go, Rust, Clojure, Erlang, Groovy, Haskell, Java, JavaScript, ECMAScript, Python, Ruby, Scala, etc.), and technologies (libraries, frameworks, databases, etc.) to subjects about the wider development environment such as testing, architecture and design, development process, analysis, patterns, project management, and softer aspects such as team building, communication and leadership. See the 2016 schedule for examples.
The Call for Sessions lasts 7 weeks and will close at midnight Friday 2016-12-02.
