Silicon Valley Code Camp : October 11th and 12th 2014Track

Track - C++ is Hot!

Mobile and cloud technologies are re-energizing interest in the uncompromising performance that C++ delivers and the new ISO/ANSI standard (C++11 and the brand new C++14) introduce features that allow programmers to achieve that performance with ever greater expressiveness.

Join us as we discuss how to get the most out of Classic C++ and discover the new features of C++11 and C++14 that are being delivered now by the latest compilers.

Sessions in this track are being given by award winning presenters. We are focusing on how to write better code. Whether you are looking at reliability and exception-safety, or readability and performance, C++ has the tools and we can help you understand how best to use them.

Sessions in this track11

Analyzing On-Chip Interconnect with Modern C++
- Jeff Trull
Modern C++ libraries and techniques applied to a representative problem in Electronic Design Automation.
C++11 in the Wild: Techniques from a Real Codebase
- Arthur O'Dwyer
Techniques from MemSQL's C++11 codebase. The Auto() macro is the next evolution of OnScopeExit(). make_iterable (a.k.a. as_range) allows "viewing" an arbitrary range as if it were a container. StringConverter. std::spaceship.
Exception-Safe Coding in C++: Part I
- Jon Kalb
Are you 100% confident that your code is exception-safe? Safe exception usage is a problem that we've struggled with for decades. You'll know how to create code that is easier to read and write, faster, and 100% robust in the face of exceptions.
Exception-Safe Coding in C++: Part II
- Jon Kalb
Are you 100% confident that your code is exception-safe? Safe exception usage is a problem that we've struggled with for decades. You'll know how to create code that is easier to read and write, faster, and 100% robust in the face of exceptions.
Fun with Lambdas: C++14 Style
- Sumant Tambe
Learn from some mind-bending examples of generic lambdas in C++14 and how they open doors to the Functional programming style in C++14.
Hardening your code
- Marshall Clow
How to make your code base more reliable; tips, tools, and techniques. C++ oriented talk.
Intro to Mobile Game Programming with Cocos2d-x, Part 1
- Troy Miles
Learn to build mobile games with the free and open source Cocos2d-x game engine.
Intro to Mobile Game Programming with Cocos2d-x, Part 2
- Troy Miles
In the second session, we will put together a simple but playable game.
MTUT: A C++ Framework for Cross-Thread Unit Testing
- Nathan Yospe
I present a C++ framework for modeling interactions between threads in a single thread's sequence, as an extension to existing C++ unit test frameworks, such as boost.Test or googletest.
Real world reversible debugging for C/C++ developers on Linux
- Greg Law
Through a series of demos Greg will give an in-depth look at the Undo technology and how it works. Greg will also detail how to record a program's execution and debug problems on-site at the customer. Q and A session at the end of the talk.
Solving Problems with Fusion
- Michael Caisse
C++11 has standardized tuples in the language; however, they leave much to be desired. Working with heterogeneous containers in a generic fashion can require above average template meta-programming skills. See what Fusion can do for you!
