Synopsis

Advanced Metaprogramming in Classic C++ aims to be both an introduction and a reference to C++ template metaprogramming (TMP); TMP is presented in the book as a set of techniques that will bring a new style in C++ and make code exceptionally clear and efficient. The book deals with language aspects, design patterns, examples and applications (seen as case studies). Special emphasis is put on small reusable techniques that will improve the quality of daily work.

What makes the book exceptional is the level of understanding of the concepts involved imparted by the author. This is not just a rote overview of metaprogramming. You will truly understand difficult topics like static assertions, how to write metafunctions, overload resolution, lambda expressions, and many others. More than that, you will work through them with practical examples guided by the author's frank explanations. This book requires you to think and to learn and to understand the language so that youcan program at a higher level.

A propos du livre

Biographie de l'auteur

Davide Di Gennaro loves to introduce himself as a mathematician, but a better definition would be a philosopher. After studying history of art and functional analysis for some years, he switched to algorithm design and C++. He has been showing the marvels of metaprogramming techniques since the late nineties: as nobody could really understand him, he was eventually nicknamed "the professor". He works for big companies, where his real identity is ignored, and he spends his free time as a photographer. Someone said that "he makes the impossible possible".
