Template Instantiation
Template instantiation is creating a concrete function or a concrete class out of a function or class template. Creating template instantiation can be implicit (compiler-generated) or explicit (user-provided).

And the Winners for the Five Vouchers for Stephan’s Book “Clean C++20” are
I’m happy to present the five winners in this post including their answers.
Performance of the Parallel STL Algorithms
In my last post, “Parallel Algorithms of the STL with the GCC Compiler“, I presented the necessary theory about the C++17 algorithm. Today, I made a performance test using the Microsoft and GCC compiler to answer the simple question: Does the execution policy pay off?
Parallel Algorithms of the STL with the GCC Compiler
GCC supports my favorite C++17 feature: the Standard Template Library (STL) parallel algorithms. I recognized this a few days ago, and I’m happy to write a post about it and share my enthusiasm.
Five Vouchers for Stephan Roth’s Book “Clean C++20” to Win
I give away five vouchers for Stephan Roth’s book “Clean C++20”, sponsored by the book’s publisher Apress.
Full Specialization of Function Templates
As you may know from my previous post, Template Specialization, a function template can only be full but not partially specialized. To make my long story short: Don’t specialize function templates. Just use function overloading.
Template Specialization – More Details About Class Templates
After I presented in my last post Template Specialization, the basics about template specialization, I dig deeper today. I want to present the partial and full specialization of a class template as a compile-time if.
Template Specialization
Templates define the behavior of families of classes or functions. Often it is required that particular types or non-types may be treated special. To support this use case, you can specialize templates.
Template Argument Deduction of Class Templates
In my last post, Template Arguments, I wrote about function template type deduction (C++98) and auto type deduction (C++11). Today I wear more modern hats. I start with automatic type deduction of non-type template parameters and class templates (C++17) and finish with automatic type deduction of concepts (C++20).
The New pdf Bundle is Ready: C++20 Coroutines
I have prepared the pdf bundle. To get it is quite simple.
