Nice use of modern C++:
Writing modern C++ servers using Wangle
by James Perry
From the article:
I mentioned in my previous post that I was able to build a prototype database engine within one day using Facebook’s Wangle so this post explains how I managed that. By the end of this post, you will be able to write a high-performance C++ server using Wangle. This post also serves as a tutorial which will be merged into Wangle’s README.md.

Some things are not as efficient as we thought:
Careful With That STL Map Insert, Eugene
by Aras Pranckevičius
From the article:
So we had this pattern in some of our code. Some sort of “device/API specific objects” need to be created out of simple “descriptor/key” structures. Think D3D11 rasterizer state or Metal pipeline state, or something similar to them...

Discover a functionnality of Visual Studio:
Support for Android CMake projects in Visual Studio
by Ion Todirel
From the article:
CMake is a cross-platform project generator that enables reuse of shared C++ code across multiple IDE and project systems.
We made a change to CMake to support our Android toolchain in Visual Studio. With this change, you can take your existing CMake project targetting Android, and with minimal modifications, you can have it open in Visual Studio, and benefit from our rich IDE experience for Android...

How to write/use C++ static analyzer using Clang.
C++ Static Analysis using Clang
by Ehsan Akhgari
From the article:
Large code bases typically develop rules around how various code constructs should be used. These rules help eliminate bugs resulting from common mistakes. C++ gives programmers a good amount of power over enforcing such rules using the facilities that the language provides. As a simple example, if you have a class that should not be inherited from, you can mark the class as final.Typically one finds themselves in a situation where the language doesn’t provide an easy way to enforcey something. In that case, the solution is typically enforcing the rules through documentation, code review, etc. Besides the obvious downside of people making mistakes when checking for these rules, detecting violations of the some rules may be completely impractical.
