Description



This course is about common C++ idioms that are related to:



– types system (return type resolver, type erasure, etc.)



– polymorphism (CRTP, virtual constructor)



–  dependencies (PIMPL)



– templates (SFINE, enable-if, object generator)



– resource management (RAII, reference counting, resource return)



– optimization (SOO, EBO)



Idioms emerge from certain features of a programming language or a lack of them.  Thus, learning C++ idioms helps better understand this language.



While learning those idioms, we will touch upon many parts of C++ like template parameters, including parameter pack, overload resolution, types of polymorphism, casting, conversion operators, placement new, special member functions, friend declarations, type deduction, etc.

Who this course is for:



   Beginner – intermediate C++ developers

   Students (either self-taught or at university) learning C++



Requirements



   At least basic knowledge of C++
