An Overview of the Coming C++ (C++0x) Standard

[@TomasPruzina-uw9ql]

This talk puts things into perspective, worth a watch in 2024.

[@PersonOfBook]

C++ is my favorite programming language! Amazing programming language!

[@sumittechkgp]

@Borbuster I am still struggling to understand the use of this new standard!. Hope I will be able to crack it soon. Seems new typedefs and lambda functions are interesting for me. Those people who uses boost library, this new standard will be very useful.

[@flowewritharoma]

I have repeated to watch this video about thirty times by now.

[@vorbeigehende]

At the July 2009 meeting in Frankfurt, Germany, the C++ Standards Committee voted to remove "concepts" from C++0x.

[@RaulKolk1]

Awesome.. Can't wait!

[@sumittechkgp]

I dont think so, I am struggling now to find the use cases of this new standard, deep in my heart I have a feeling these addition are good. Most of them came from boost library and people uses them.

[@CamiloSanchez1979]

What is locks? I dont understand, where can I leanr about it?

[@EddieKMusic]

@MrRobertFritz he said in 2010...

[@bloody_albatross]

@vorbeigehende Waah! I kinda liked concepts! I thought this would solve some duplication problems I see with a lot of libraries that try to avoid dependencies.

[@nosoulapophis]

True much much smaller the C++ standard libraries family. There is a saying you can program most of your life in Java and you still didn't use most of the standard libraries.

[@perpetualmaniac]

As the guy at 53:39, I have to say in my defense that it was Halloween. And for those curious, I was AwesomeMan, a hypothetical mega man villain that wields the AwesomeGun, which is like a BFG but more awesome.

[@sumittechkgp]

It is already less portable (gcc4.7.x), backward compatibility is gone (gcc4.7.x), This Joe struggled many years to use C++ efficiently!. Still I am so hopeful.

[@w0mblemania]

@narutofan9999 I'm comparing it to C. In which case, C++ is definitely bloated. It tries to be too many things to too many people. (e.g. default member initialisers: why? It adds no value that a programmer couldn't add through the constructor anyway, more legibly.)

[@MrVijfhoek]

Excuse my late response, I should look at dates...

[@antred11]

@w0mblemania C++ is far from perfect and all this stoneage C backward compatibility crap is weighing it down a lot, but by and large C++ is still my favorite language to code in (more so than Python even). boost and C++ 0x are making my life so much better.

[@7cle]

@rmoran408 Dear sir, First, you are unfair true, he's speech is not fluid but you didn't think this guy could be fighting against a speech impediment like stutter. And I think he's doing a great job of it. Second, C++ doen't need your support. The industry uses it heavily and various users/implementors have devised incompatible detours around its limitations. ISO comes in to help people agree on one a common language that allows people change teams and stiff understand the code.

[@daltonsbadboy]

I would much prefer the confidential matters.

[@Maklolm]

It will make C++ so much less portable, also C++ is already almost impossible to master completely, how long will it take an average Joe to master C++11??? Also, C++11 will be even more intransparent as to what is going on behind the scenes. Besides, none of those features are really "necessary", given that you can do all those neat things using boost or other libs, except for syntactical sugar. Maybe the template-improvements and "auto" are the only good things about C++11, albeit not essential

[@MrVijfhoek]

Not true, C++ as a native language will always be faster than bytecode languages.

[@henriok]

Is the guy at 53:39 wearing a Borg constume? Resistance is futile dude! :)

[@dandymcgee]

Loll there's no opening parenthesis either. Parenthesis are not require for one-line if statement bodies.

[@dandymcgee]

Woops, my mistake. :P

[@americadashi]

To think I learn this language when researching about game engines.

[@MrRobertFritz]

When will appear this? 2050? :D

[@LorenKuich76]

True, but Java is also becoming just as fast if not faster than C++.

[@walter0bz]

auto & decltype rocks. gcc alwas had typeof for similar effect

[@walter0bz]

2 best things about c++0x [1] lambdas [2] leet name

[@LorenKuich76]

I performance encourage you to Google, "java vs c++". You may be surprised.

[@wowus123]

HE DOESN'T CLOSE PARENTHESES D:

[@datahaki]

detached threads :-)

[@darkmajik23]

the kid to the left keeps messing with his pc lol

[@Mcegan69]

god damn hurry up with this...C++ is lacking sorely in UTF-8 support and portable unicode support in general

[@keylllogdark]

c - -...

[@Maklolm]

What a horrible set of unnecessary stuff they added to C++!! They should call it CFuckYou instead from now on!

[@FlameHue]

D programming language.

[@TheUndeadTech]

don't bother with java

[@vertigo6982]

keyword - Overview. Dont expect to learn anything from this talk. If anything it'll just remind you how confusing C++ can be. I'll admit Herb Sutter is better at doing overviews.. he goes into what was added and why.. but shows you why its better by using old and new code to show the differences.

[@aliloko]

C++0x is ugly
