Effective Modern C++ Topics include: ■■ The pros and cons of braced initialization, noexcept specifications, perfect forwarding, and smart pointer make functions ■■ The relationships among std::move, std::forward, rvalue references, and universal references ■■ Techniques for writing clear, correct, effective lambda expressions ■■ How std::atomic differs from volatile, how each should be used, and how they relate to C++'s concurrency API ■■ How best practices in "old" C++ programming (i.e., C++98) require revision for software development in modern C++ I learned the C++ “ After basics, I then learned how to use C++ in production code from Meyers' series of Effective C++ books. Effective Modern C++ is the most important how-to book for advice on key guidelines, styles, and idioms to use modern C++ effectively and well. Don't own it yet? Buy this one. Now. ” —Herb Sutter Chair of ISO C++ Standards Committee and C++ Software Architect at Microsoft Effective Modern C++ Coming to grips with C++11 and C++14 is more than a matter of familiarizing yourself with the features they introduce (e.g., auto type declarations, move semantics, lambda expressions, and concurrency support). The challenge is learning to use those features effectively—so that your software is correct, efficient, maintainable, and portable. That’s where this practical book comes in. It describes how to write truly great software using C++11 and C++14—i.e. using modern C++. Effective Modern C++ follows the proven guideline-based, example-driven format of Scott Meyers' earlier books, but covers entirely new material. It's essential reading for every modern C++ software developer. For more than 20 years, Scott Meyers' Effective C++ books (Effective C++, More Effective C++, and Effective STL) have set the bar for C++ programming guidance. His clear, engaging explanations of complex technical material have earned him a worldwide following, keeping him in demand as a trainer, consultant, and conference presenter. He has a Ph.D. in Computer Science from Brown University.
