Hi brother, greeetings from Turkey.

I think you should add stanley lippman in that list as well-although he hasn't written for a long time.

his articles:

and his blog, consisting of his old articles:

http://blogs.msdn.com/slippman/

keep up the good work, you are one of the few people encouraging me to put up with c++ :P

Hi,
Thanks for your encouragement! Adding Stan Lippman in the list makes perfect sense. I'm wondering why his name did not pop up in my head.

One very good reason to stay up-to-date with latest C++ is the upcoming C++09 standard (http://www.open-std.org/JTC1/SC22/WG21/docs/papers/2008/n2565.html) which will take C++ to a whole new level of power and complexity!

Review of Manning's Functional Programming in C++

Last year I reviewed the pre-print manuscript of Manning's Functional Programming in C++ written by Ivan Čukić. I really enjoyed reading the book. I enthusiastically support that the book Offers precise, easy-to-understand, and engaging explanations of functional concepts. Who is this book for This book expects a reasonable working knowledge of C++, its modern syntax, and semantics from the readers. Therefore, reading this book might require a companion book for C++ beginners. I think that’s fair because FP is an advanced topic. C++ is getting more and more powerful day by day. While there are many FP topics that could be discussed in such a book, I like the practicality of the topics selected in this book. Here's the table of contents at a glance. This is a solid coverage of functional programming concepts to get a determined programmer going from zero-to-sixty in a matter of weeks. Others have shared their thoughts on this book as well. See Rangarajan Krishnamo...

Multi-dimensional arrays in C++11

What new can be said about multi-dimensional arrays in C++? As it turns out, quite a bit! With the advent of C++11, we get new standard library class std::array. We also get new language features, such as template aliases and variadic templates. So I'll talk about interesting ways in which they come together. It all started with a simple question of how to define a multi-dimensional std::array. It is a great example of deceptively simple things. Are the following the two arrays identical except that one is native and the other one is std::array? int native[3][4]; std::array<std::array<int, 3>, 4> arr; No! They are not. In fact, arr is more like an int[4][3]. Note the difference in the array subscripts. The native array is an array of 3 elements where every element is itself an array of 4 integers. 3 rows and 4 columns. If you want a std::array with the same layout, what you really need is: std::array<std::array<int, 4>, 3> arr; That's quite annoying for...

Unit Testing C++ Templates and Mock Injection Using Traits

Unit testing your template code comes up from time to time. (You test your templates, right?) Some templates are easy to test. No others. Sometimes it's not clear how to about injecting mock code into the template code that's under test. I've seen several reasons why code injection becomes challenging. Here I've outlined some examples below with roughly increasing code injection difficulty. Template accepts a type argument and an object of the same type by reference in constructor Template accepts a type argument. Makes a copy of the constructor argument or simply does not take one Template accepts a type argument and instantiates multiple interrelated templates without virtual functions Lets start with the easy ones. Template accepts a type argument and an object of the same type by reference in constructor This one appears straight-forward because the unit test simply instantiates the template under test with a mock type. Some assertion might be tested in...
