I'm Proud to Present: Modern C++ Concurrency is available as interactive course

9 August 2018

Based on my book "Concurrency with Modern C++" educative.io created an interactive course. You can have it now at a discount of 38 %.

"Modern C++ Concurrency" is an interactive journey through current and upcoming concurrency in C++.

C++11 and C++14 have the basic building blocks for creating concurrent or parallel programs.
With C++17 we got the parallel algorithms of the Standard Template Library (STL). That means, most of the algorithms of the STL can be executed sequential, parallel, or vectorized.
The concurrency story in C++ goes on. With C++20 we can hope for extended futures, coroutines, transactions, and more.

The Truth about "Raw Pointers Removed from C++"

2 April 2018

Five bloggers have teamed up around the world to deliver an April Fool's joke to readers about eliminating pointers. The response to the five articles was huge and ranged from "it took so long" to "that can not be true". Here again the truths, half-truths and untruths: No New New: Raw Pointers Removed from C++. You can even read this post in German or in Russian.

No New New: Raw Pointers Removed from C++

1 April 2018

Two weeks ago, the ISO C++ standard meeting took place in Jacksonville. Today I want to make a short detour and write about the revolutionary decision that was made in the Jacksonville meeting. Additionally, I refer to the post C++ Will no Longer Have Pointers by Fluent C++. The standard committee decided that pointers will be deprecated in C++20 and will with very high probability be removed in C++23.
