One of the great features of C++ is templates, they are parameterized by alias templates in C++11. Then, In C++14 and C++17, they improved C++11’s feature with a number of template aliases whose use simplifies the traits. This feature is called “Alias Templates For Traits” and in this post, we explain what is and alias template and how we can use alias templates with…
C++17 standard is amazing with a lot of new features, and one of the interesting features was the new type std::any. std::any is a type-safe container to store a single value of any variable type. In this post, we explain std::any in modern C++.
What is std::any in C++…
C++17 had enormous changes in C++ features. One of them was basic_string_view (std::basic_string_view) which is a constant string container that can be used for multiple string declarations. The basic_string_view is a modern way of read-only text definition. It can be…
The C++17 standard came with a lot of new features and improvements. One of the features was the math.h library which modernized math operations with the cmath library. The Parallelism Technical Specification adds several new algorithms to the standard C++ library that we can use in C++ Builder 12. These are modernized in the <algorithm> header in the standard library. In this post, we…
With the C++17 standard, the contents of the Parallelism Technical Specification are added to modern C++, and as a result, make their way into many C++ compilers and IDEs, such as the latest C++ Builder 12. This feature adds new overloads, taking an additional execution…
In programming, one of the most used variable types are text strings, and they are sometimes really important when storing and retrieving valuable data. It is important to store your data safely in its language and localization. Most programming languages have issues when…
C++17 is another big milestone in the history of C++, it comes with a lot of new features. In C++17, the fold expressions feature is a powerful feature that allows us to fold a parameter pack over a binary operator. Folding Expressions are very useful with variadic templates, and this feature makes template arguments more readable and concise. There are 4 different types of usage and in this…
In C++11 and C++14, we were able to use this math.h library in C++ applications. After the C++17 standard, this library modernized math operations with the cmath library. Functions are declared in <cmath> header. For compatibility reasons the <math.h> is an optional…
The features of C++17 were a big step in the history of C++ and brought a lot of new features. In C++17, there are new auto rules for direct-list-initialization. This feature in C++, changes the rules for auto deduction from a braced-init-list. In this post, we explain what…
In C++14, there are pretty good new overloads of std::equal, std::mismatch, and std::is_permutation that can be used to take a pair of iterators for the second range. They can be used with the new C++ Builder 12 along with the 11.x, or 10.x versions too. In this post, we explain these new overloads that we use ranges of iterations.
What are the new overloads for ranges in C++ 14?
In…
