If you are on the hunt for the best C/C++ compilers available today, this article lists the top C/C++ compilers for Windows with their features. It’s very hard, in fact, to identify which C++ compiler is the best for you, as this is mostly about what you want to achieve with your code. If you want to implement small projects for analysis and calculations without GUIs and many other features…
An integrated development environment (IDE) is a software application that provides a complete set of features for application development. Code is generally written in text format, and you can easily edit or modify your code using text editors like Notepad, Word, Wordpad…
Learn C++ With The Future of C++ Parallel and Concurrency Safety Guidelines by Michael Wong and Ilya Burylov (CppCon 2020) Video
November 28, 2020
The guidelines for safe parallel/concurrency C++ has never been established. It is a challenge that has taken the most of time, especially with the constant change of the C++ standard. This video talks about the developing rules, which has yet to be finalized, but can give…
This video gives you a quick introduction to the RAD Studio and C++Builder IDE for quickly building beautiful Windows apps with C++. Eli M. walks you through how to set up both VCL and FireMonkey projects while going through some of the key IDE features. C++Builder is a rapid application development environment, originally developed by Borland and as of 2009 owned by Embarcadero Technologies, for…
Learn C++ With Closing the Gap between Rust and C++ Using Principles of Static Analysis by Sunny Chatterjee (CppCon 2020) Video
November 27, 2020
The safety benefits of Rust language are commonly familiar for C++ developers. In the system programming languages, both Rust and C++ perform in high quality. However, customers and security researchers say that C++ is more secure when it comes to safety and correctness.
Learn C++ With Template Metaprogramming: Type Traits by Jodi Haggins (CPPCon 2020) Video
November 26, 2020
Template metaprogramming can be very broad. However, fundamental idioms exist and can be found useful with the modern C++ code. This video focuses on applying type traits from the standard library, as having knowledge in the fundamental idioms of template metaprogramming can…
There are two kinds of if statements in modern C++: runtime if and compile-time if constexpr.
Runtime if looks like:
if (condition) statement-true
if (condition) statement-true else statement-false
In both forms of above if the result of condition yields to true, then statement-true is executed. Otherwise (in the second form of above) the statement-false is…
Learn The Initialization Of Class Objects By Rvalues When Building Windows Apps In C++
November 25, 2020
C++Builder includes the use of rvalue references, which allow creating a reference to temporaries. When you initialize to an class object using an rvalue(a temporary object), C++11 looks to see if you have defined a move constructor in your class. If you have, the temporary…
Learn About Using Right Angle Brackets In This C++11 Feature For Windows Development
November 25, 2020
In the Clang-enhanced C++ compilers, two consecutive right angle brackets no longer generate an error, and these constructions are treated according to the C++11 standard.
C++03’s parser defines “>>” as the right shift operator or stream extraction…
