Learn C++ With Performance Matters by Emery Berger (CPPCon 2020) Video
February 22, 2021
Performance is one of the key reasons why so many C++ programmers enjoy the language. This video will be addressing some of the significant and unexpected challenges faced by C++ programmers trying to achieve high performance on modern hardware platforms: performance is much…
Learn C++ With Functional Error and Optional-value Handling with STX by Basit Ayantunde (CPPCon 2020) Video
February 18, 2021
Error-handling is probably the most divergent part of C++. Many coding guidelines partially allow exception or completely bans, and this leads to many projects supporting multiple error-handling interfaces, such as exceptions, error-prone c-style error-handling, and/or custom error-handling types. This video talks about STX; a C++ library that seeks to fix some of these issues with error and…
Learn C++ With Introducing Microsoft's New Open Source Fuzzing Platform by Michael Walker and Justin Campbell (CPPCon 2020) Video
February 16, 2021
Microsoft is currently fuzzing Windows continuously in Azure using the libfuzzer and the fuzzing tool built by Microsoft Research that we are releasing as Open Source at CPPCon. Developers who continuously create libfuzzer-based test binaries using sanitizers and coverage…
Learn C++ With A Parallel and Heterogeneous Task Programming System Using Modern C++ by Tsung-Wei Huang (CPPCon 2020) Video
February 14, 2021
Taskflow develops a simple and powerful task programming model to allow for efficient implementation of heterogeneous decomposition strategies. This video will cover three aspects: (1) a heterogeneous task programming model using modern C++, (2) an effective work-stealing…
Learn C++ With Practical Memory Pool Based Allocators For Modern C++ by Misha Shalem (CPPCon 2020) Video
February 12, 2021
This talk introduces an approach that uses a combination of a code-based memory allocator implementation and an LLVM-based tool that extracts instrumentation information. There is still considerable value in keeping up with the standard allocator model, as well as in following common conventions that are familiar to any C++ developer. The video will be presenting the easiest possible…
Experienced C++ programmers think of C++ as a multi-paradigm language capable of moving between paradigms when needed. In this video, you will be looking at the actual code and techniques that can be implemented today or, in certain cases, in the near future, as well as a…
