The C++ programming language is used for operating systems, web browsers, games, embedded software, autonomous cars, medical technology, and many other applications. In 2020, major companies such as Facebook, Google, Amazon, and many others relied on C++ to run their data centers, and likely they still do. Since its inception over four decades ago, C++ has expanded many times with performance, efficiency, and flexibility of use as its main design highlights. When C++20 became generally available in December 2020, we talked to a panel of C++ experts, evangelists, and devotees from both sides of the pond to understand a little more about C++ – its current position in the development community, its history, and its future. Much of what we learnt then is still relevant today.

Structured Bindings with Qt SQL
12 May 2022
Some time ago, I wrote a post about integrating Qt's associative containers with the fancy new C++ features, range-based for loops with structured bindings. That post inspired KDAB's own Giuseppe D'Angelo to add the asKeyValueRange member function to both QHash and QMap. Now it's possible to iterate over them with a simple range-based for loop, […]
Close your eyes and imagine some of your most complex code. In that code, you likely calculate a lot of values. But for some code paths, they might not even be needed. It is, however, too difficult to untangle the code. So, the values are really only calculated when needed, and only so one time. In this video, I discuss a class I've implemented to tackle that exact problem.
Not all C++ programs are fast by default. One of the most time-costly mistakes we can make is creating unnecessary copies. We show that with linear types, functional programming style APIs need not be slower than their impure imperative counterparts.
Qt has a long history. The first stable version was released before the first version of C++ was standardized and long before the different C++ compiler vendors started shipping usable implementations of the C++ standard library. Because of this, Qt often followed (and still follows) some design idioms that feel unnatural to the usual C++ […]
