C++14 brought us a lot of useful things that we use today. One of the great features of C++14 was the member initializers and aggregates feature that a class with default member initializers may now be an aggregate. In this post, we explain how can use member initializers and aggregates with examples.
What are the member initializers and aggregates features in C++14?
With the new C++14, a…
Modern C++ has base class features that can be used with other modern features of C++. The std::integral_constant is the base class for the C++ type traits in C++11, and in C++14, std::integral_constant gained an operator () overload to return the constant value. In this…
C++11 introduced new forms of literals using modified syntax and semantics to provide User-Defined Literals (UDL) also known as Extensible Literals. While there was the ability to use them the standard library did not use any of them. In C++14, the commission added some…
Containers are data storage arrays in modern C++ and they are very useful to iterate and search data with their amazing methods and properties. The C++ Standard Library defines four different main container types and one of them is associative containers such as std::map, and std::set. These class types allow us to use the look-up method “find()” by a value based on a value of that…
The tuple ( std::tuple ) is a class template that stores the different types of elements, it also supports empty lists in modern C++. This template was introduced in C++11 and improved in C++14. In this post, we explain tuple addressing via type features that come with the…
A concurrency support library is designed to solve problems in modern C++ that arise with multi-thread development. This library includes built-in support for threads (std::thread), atomic operations (std::atomic), mutual exclusion (std::mutex), condition variables…
The concurrency support library in modern C++ is designed to solve read and write data securely in thread operations that allow us to develop faster multi-thread apps. This library includes built-in support for threads (std::thread), atomic operations (std::atomic), mutual exclusion (std::mutex), condition variables (std::condition_variable), and many other features. In C++14, in addition to…
Containers are powerful data storage arrays in modern C++ and they are very useful to iterate and search data with their amazing methods and properties. TheC++ Standardslibrary defines 4 container types. In this post, we explain containers in modern C++.
What…
Sometimes we want to preserve the string format especially when we use string in a string with /”. In C++14 and above, there is a std::quoted template that allows handling strings safely where they may contain spaces and special characters and it keeps their formatting…
The auto keyword arrives with the new features of the C++11 and the standards above. In C++14, there is a new decltype that is used with auto keyword. In modern C++, the decltype(auto) type-specifier deduces return types while keeping their references and cv-qualifiers, while auto does not. In this post, we explain what decltype (auto) is in modern C++ and how to use it.
What is auto in…
