About conditional brealkpoits

by Jens Weller

From the article:

A few weeks ago someone asked me for advice on finding a specific bug in a larger C++ code base...

I don't remember much of the details, but one of the challenges was that at least some of the code based used public members, and in order to find the bug a change in these members is what they wanted to understand. Adding out put statements into a setter function wasn't possible, as the code did not have those. My suggestion was using a conditional breakpoint. And it also made me curious, if and how they're used with in our community.

A first view on the talks and speakers of Meeting C++ 2022

by Jens Weller

From the article:

I'm excited to release this update for Meeting C++ 2022: the talks and speakers for this years conference!

As you can see in the talk listing, this is still an ongoing process, getting the speaker pictures from the new speakers for this year will still take a while. Creating the schedule will also take a few weeks, as of now Tracks A and B are planned on site, with Tracks C and D being part of the online part.

An overview on the issues face when porting my first application to Qt6

Porting my first Application from Qt5 to Qt6

by Jens Weller

From the article:

Just this week I had the opportunity to recompile one of my Qt Applications to build it with Qt6. Here is some of the results.

The application in question manages parts of the conference, and hence is written in Qt for the UI and uses SQLite as datastorage, so Qt also used for this and as I learned for a few other things too...

Ways to Refactor Toggle/Boolean Parameters in C++--Bartlomiej Filipek

Ways to Refactor Toggle/Boolean Parameters in C++

by Bartlomiej Filipek

From the article:

Boolean parameters in a function might be misleading and decrease its readability. If you have a poorly named function like:

DoImportantStuff(true, false, true, false);

As you can imagine, it’s not clear what all those parameters mean? What’s the first true? What does the last false mean? Can we improve code in such cases?

Let’s have a look at possible improvements...
