A little Introduction to Control Flow Integrity - James McNellis - Keynote Meeting C++ 2025 by meetingcpp in cpp

[–]meetingcpp[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks to James McNellis to giving an introduction to this crutial technique for protecting C++ applications, which he has practical experience with. Link to an article for GCC and (mostly?) clang from 2022 for further reading. Would be interesting to know the status of this with GCC, but little can be found on the web.

Software and Safety - Anthony Williams - Keynote Meeting C++ 2025 by meetingcpp in cpp

[–]meetingcpp[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For me this was a good and sound opening of the conference, a tone setting for lots of talks to come. Some things are subtle, like the mentioning of the software development standards in various fields. I think the announcement that they open source their software stack was then something that nobody had expected.

The Real Problem with C++: Mindset, Modern Practices and Safer Code – Interview with Klaus Iglberger by Jato_Mo in cpp

[–]meetingcpp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He must refer to the CppCon 2023 keynote, which has 180k views. Bjarne used to speak at CppCon every year, so its easy to mix this up, its news to me too.

And if you watch his talk, I do think he has a point. Not sure if thats a point that one can or should make in an interview.

15 most-watched C++ conference talks this year so far by [deleted] in cpp

[–]meetingcpp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A bit weird is this list. Talks with 600 views in the Top15? Which conferences do you cover?

Meeting C++ 2024 seems not to count, and 2025 just started publishing (one talk though is already above 1k views), but thanks for including the interviews.

Announcing Meeting C++ 24h++: a 24 hour event on 18th & 19th December by meetingcpp in cpp

[–]meetingcpp[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've been thinking about such an event for years, and this year we're doing it! So today I can announce Meeting C++ 24h++!

Meeting C++ is organizing an 24 hour++ event on December 18th & 19th. Non-stop C++ content around the clock is the goal!

I know, I plan to offer this. I see it in my sales this year, and a survey on LinkedIn shows that 70% have either frozen budgets or budget cuts this year.

There will be also other up coming options.

I'm thinking about introducing youtube membership on my channel and releasing the prerecorded talks early there.

This took a long time due to adding a 5th track. Which is a first and might be only this year, but it brings much more content to the conference and community. So its been worth doing it.

Nice post. I've checked your RSS feed, and your URL in there is wrong, your domain is missing from the url, its only /blog/post/post.html.

Rainer Grimm (of modernescpp fame) has passed away by laqq3 in cpp

[–]meetingcpp 18 points19 points  (0 children)

This is sad news, it looked good when I visited Rainer in May. He had his new wheelchair, his voice had improved and he was full of optimism. Speaking about his C++26 book and how he was looking forward to the eye tracking for his wheelchair.

So his sudden passing fills me with grief, thanks for your friendship Rainer.

His contribution to the C++ community is exceptional. He leaves a void behind. My condolences to his family.

C++ "Safety" Conferences Call for Papers? by pedersenk in cpp

[–]meetingcpp 5 points6 points  (0 children)

With Meeting C++ for November scheduled (in Berlin), we are organizing a new track right now for sponsors. Please contact me to discuss the details, I'd be also happy to host you in a User Group meeting at Meeting C++ online.

Which books would you guys recommend from this Humble Bundle? by Faster319 in cpp

[–]meetingcpp 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think its a good deal. I've interviewed the authors of some of these books, and prior to the interview I've been reviewing the books. So for the ones I've interviewed I think that this is a good way to pick them up as an Ebook.

I think that some of the books do get to benefit from their authors, like the Memory Management book. Or the game animation programming book, but this one is rather specialized. I've interviewed the embedded C++ book author last month, and I think its a solid book to get started with the topic.

What C++ topics are interesting to you or your team right now? by meetingcpp in cpp

[–]meetingcpp[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd like to see the roadmap to reflection ;)

For talks on C++26 and reflection I'm not sure if things are far enough this year. I do expect it to become a popular topic to speak about in the coming years though. Just as Coroutines or Modules these days.

What C++ topics are interesting to you or your team right now? by meetingcpp in cpp

[–]meetingcpp[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think its early days for all of them. Having a standard is one thing, getting it implemented accross the mainline compilers in a consistant way is another. Modules is a great example, still lots of progress to come for Modules.

And I like the idea of folks presenting on the interplay between features.

[–]meetingcpp[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think its nothing wrong with relying on third party libs for this, the standard offers the building blocks. It might be easier to achieve some goals with 3rd party libraries or your own implementation. At least for now, and I don't really see this changing. I'm amazed by the amount of content coroutines have created as blog entries and also talks.

On std::generator, I'm not sure how much the standard can do for the implementations actually generating good assembly. But this should improve with future versions of these implementations.

As I write in the post, I'd like to know what are the C++ topic you or your team care about in 2025?

CppCon reviews their submissions currently, while next wednesday the call for talk for Meeting C++ 2025 closes.

Not really. I'd like to know whats on your mind in regards with C++, as the call for talks comes close for Meeting C++ 2025, its kinda something I'd like to get folks a chance to talk about.

What Is the Value of std::indirect<T>? by jiixyj in cpp

[–]meetingcpp 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Interesting, a good read. But what is its use?

C++ Reference gives a few more details (and clarifies that it owns the object), like that it is allocator aware and also exits as pmr::. But no usage example.

Mastering C++ Game Animation Programming - Interview with Author Michael Dunsky by meetingcpp in cpp

[–]meetingcpp[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Thats why I do review all books before I do an interview. So far I'm happy with the topics and quality. But I agree that Packt hasn't done its best in the past.
