The last update to the schedule for Meeting C++ 2025

by Jens Weller

From the article:

With release of the static html schedule for the website everything is ready for Meeting C++ 2025!

For a few years now Meeting C++ offers two schedules: the live schedule is coming from the database, which allows us to make changes during the conference. The other schedule is part of the static website and just a single page powered by the C++ CMS from Meeting C++. Due to the 5th track this year I've just had one week before the conference the time to update the website with this now final program for the conference.

 

Looking at binary trees in C++

While preparing a talk for Meeting C++ 2025 I've started looking into binary trees. And got curious about a different design choice.

Looking at binary trees in C++

by Jens Weller

From the article:

I'm in the process of preparing a quick talk on trees in C++ for Meeting C++ 2025. In order to see what the web offers, I've searched exactly for this, "trees in C++".

This showed that most posts found by duckduckgo or google were about binary trees, and in particular the same or similar implementation of using raw pointers for the left/right elements in the tree. Including using new to allocate for the nodes, only some times the code also bothers with using delete. The basic node class looks like this:

I am excited to announce that with the recent changes to the schedule, Meeting C++ 2025 has now 5 tracks: 4 onsite and 1 online track. This new track is possible thanks to better funding from sponsors and exhibitors enabling even more C++ content at Meeting C++ in Berlin.

You should use QPainterPath they said...

A blog entry about this years t-shirt at Meeting C++ 2025 and exploring QPainterPath for it.

You should use QPainterPath they said...

by Jens Weller

From the article:

This post is about what I learned while playing around with QPainterPath for this years t-shirt at Meeting C++ 2025 sponsored by Hudson River Trading.

One of the issues from last years t-shirt was when using drawText from QPainter, one does not really *draw* text in an svg exported. Instead you'll get the text and the font kinda embedded in an svg. What good is that in a vector graphic? This was a bit of a surprise when I ran into issues with this last year during printing. While this could be solved with the printing company picking a different font, it would have been also solved by using QPainterPath. At least this was the feedback from some of the Qt experts present onsite or online...

Highlighting the student and support tickets for Meeting C++ 2025

by Jens Weller

From the article:

I'd like to point towards the programs for those that can't afford to pay for a ticket for Meeting C++ 2025: the programs for the student and support tickets.

And let me start with thanking those that enable these programs through their ticket buying: the attendees and sponsors of Meeting C++ 2025! With the schedule published, I'd like to highlight the student and support tickets for Meeting C++ 2025. For a few years now Meeting C++ has hosted programs to give students, underrepresented folks and those who can't afford a ticket access to the conference.

Meeting C++ is hosting a job fair in October online and planning a job fair in November in Berlin at Meeting C++ 2025!

by Jens Weller

From the article:

The next Meeting C++ online job fair is planned for October 14th & 15th, also I'd like to talk about the onsite job fair plans for Meeting C++ 2025!

If you have open positions you should advertise them in the bi-weekly Meeting C++ Jobs Newsletter, which now also powers the candidate listing of Meeting C++ with 80+ international candidates at the moment.

 

Planning a 5th track for Meeting C++ 2025

Meeting C++ is putting together a 5th track, which will feature onsite in Berlin

Planning a 5th track for Meeting C++ 2025

by Jens Weller

From the article:

I'm working on adding a 5th Track to Meeting C++ 2025 for onsite.

Already last year I've been thinking about this, but in the end its been to expensive to do, and hence only feasible with a large increase in onsite attendees. This year I'm able to go a different route through sponsorship, and thus for onsite the cost is covered by sponsors. Which in turn then also contribute talks. I hope that most talks will be in the schedule by October, and I plan to release the first talks in September for the new track. Right now the track is not visible in the schedule, as I don't want to add an empty track. We may also stream the online track into the conference in a room.
