Description

Despite the prevalence of higher-level languages, C++ is still running the world, from bare-metal embedded systems to distributed cloud-native systems. C++ is on the frontline whenever there is a need for a performance-sensitive tool supporting complex data structures. The language has been actively evolving for the last two decades. This book is a comprehensive guide that shows you how to implement SOLID principles and refactor legacy code using the modern features and approaches of C++, the standard library, Boost library collection, and Guidelines Support Library by Microsoft. The book begins by describing the essential elements of writing clean code and discussing object-oriented programming in C++. You’ll explore the design principles of software testing with examples of using popular unit testing frameworks such as Google Test. The book also guides you through applying automated tools for static and dynamic code analysis using Clang Tools. By the end of this book, you’ll be proficient in applying industry-approved coding practices to design clean, sustainable, and readable real-world C++ code.

What you will learn

Leverage the rich type system of C++ to write safe and elegant code

Create advanced object-oriented designs using the unique features of C++

Minimize code duplication by using metaprogramming

Refactor code safely with the help of unit tests

Ensure code conventions and format with clang-format

Here's my review of "Refactoring with C++" by Dmitry Danilov. This book is a unique and excellent resource for C++ improvers, filling a crucial gap in the C++ literature with its focus on refactoring specifically for C++.Martin Fowler's work on refactoring was an important contribution to the software engineering literature and a definite must-read. However, it focuses on Java and heavily object-oriented patterns. I hadn't seen a detailed topic of refactoring in the C++ domain until I came across Danilov's book.C++ refactoring looks and feels quite different from Java refactoring. There are more considerations and possible ways to proceed. The patterns presented in this book are good to consider as the best patterns for refactoring in C++.If I were to offer some minor criticisms of the book, it would be that it's not entirely tailored for beginners. The difficulty of the content doesn't always increase gradually, and there are intermittent advanced topics (such as concurrency) that appear unexpectedly. However, the descriptions of best software engineering practices are well-summarized and presented in a way that even beginners can benefit from.For those learning C++, I recommend studying the examples very carefully to understand the patterns presented.
