Modern C++ Programming Cookbook

Learning Modern Core Language Features

The C++ language has gone through a major transformation in the past decades with the development and release of C++11 and then, later, with its newer versions: C++14, C++17, C++20, and C++23. These new standards have introduced new concepts, simplified and extended existing syntax and semantics, and transformed the way we write code overall. C++11 looks and feels like a new language compared to what we previously knew, and code written using these new standards is called modern C++ code. This introductory chapter will touch on some of the language features introduced, starting with C++11, that help you with many coding routines. However, the core of the language expands way beyond the topics addressed in this chapter, and many other features are discussed in the other chapters of the book.

The recipes included in this chapter are as follows:

  • Using auto whenever possible
  • Creating type aliases and alias templates
  • Understanding uniform initialization
  • Understanding the various forms of non-static member initialization
  • Controlling and querying object alignment
  • Using scoped enumerations
  • Using override and final for virtual methods
  • Using range-based for loops to iterate on a range
  • Enabling range-based for loops for custom types
  • Using explicit constructors and conversion operators to avoid implicit conversion
  • Using unnamed namespaces instead of static globals
  • Using inline namespaces for symbol versioning
  • Using structured bindings to handle multi-return values
  • Simplifying code with class template argument deduction
  • Using the subscript operator to access elements in a collection

Let’s start by learning about automatic type deduction.

Key benefits

  • Updated and packed with new recipes, including sync streams, std:expected and std:mdspan, and C++20/23 range adaptors
  • Covers all significant features from all modern versions of the standard, providing comprehensive insights into modern C++
  • Learn through a series of hands-on, self-contained recipes
  • Purchase of the print or Kindle book includes a free eBook in PDF format

Description

The updated third edition of Modern C++ Programming Cookbook addresses the latest features of C++23, such as the stacktrace library, std::expected and std::mdspan classes, the header, formatting library improvements, and updates to the ranges library. It also gets into more C++20 topics not previously covered, such as sync streams and source_location. The book is organized into practical recipes covering a wide range of real-world problems, helping you find the solutions you need quickly. You’ll find coverage of all the core concepts of modern C++ programming and features and techniques from C++11 through to C++23, meaning you’ll stay ahead of the curve by learning to incorporate the newest language and library improvements. Beyond the core concepts and new features, you’ll explore recipes related to performance and best practices, how to implement useful patterns and idioms, like pimpl, named parameter, attorney-client, and the factory pattern, and how to complete unit testing with the widely used C++ libraries: Boost.Test, Google Test, and Catch2. With the comprehensive coverage this C++ programming guide offers, by the end of the book you’ll have everything you need to build performant, scalable, and efficient applications in C++.

Who is this book for?

This book is designed for entry- and intermediate-level programmers who already have a foundational understanding of the C++ programming language, but who are looking to master the language, implement the newest features, and become proficient modern C++ developers. Experienced C++ programmers can leverage the recipes in this book to quickly get up to speed on all the most important language and library features of C++11/14/17/20 and 23.

I don't often read technical books in the form of recipes, I prefer touse materials that cover absolutely every language and library feature.Nevertheless, I liked this book. C++ features and STL elements presentedin the form of recipes allows you to focus on the possibilities offered bythe discussed feature/element and thus make them easier to remember.It is a very good book for getting ideas for implementation techniques.I highly recommend this resource for C++ developers who want to learnsome new C++ features through all recent standards.

Marius Bancila's Modern C++ Programming Cookbook continues to be an indispensable resource for C++ developers, especially with its third edition now covering C++23 features. This edition not only provides a deep dive into modern C++ but also keeps up with the latest advancements in the language, making it a must-have for those who want to stay ahead.What I appreciate most is the clarity of explanation. Bancila has a unique ability to make complex topics accessible without sacrificing depth, making the book ideal for both experienced professionals and those growing into more advanced areas of C++. The organization of the content is top-notch, with well-structured code snippets that are not only easy to follow but also closely mimic real-world scenarios.The inclusion of C++23 features adds significant value, especially for developers working on cutting-edge projects. Bancila’s approach ensures that readers can quickly understand and apply these new features, making it easier to stay current with the evolving standards of the language.In summary, this third edition of Modern C++ Programming Cookbook is a highly practical and insightful guide for developers looking to elevate their C++ skills. It remains one of the best resources for anyone working with or advancing in the modern C++ ecosystem.

What is custom duty/charge? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

Customs duty are charges levied on goods when they cross international borders. It is a tax that is imposed on imported goods. These duties are charged by special authorities and bodies created by local governments and are meant to protect local industries, economies, and businesses.

Do I have to pay customs charges for the print book order? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The orders shipped to the countries that are listed under EU27 will not bear custom charges. They are paid by Packt as part of the order.

List of EU27 countries: www.gov.uk/eu-eea:

A custom duty or localized taxes may be applicable on the shipment and would be charged by the recipient country outside of the EU27 which should be paid by the customer and these duties are not included in the shipping charges been charged on the order.

How do I know my custom duty charges? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The amount of duty payable varies greatly depending on the imported goods, the country of origin and several other factors like the total invoice amount or dimensions like weight, and other such criteria applicable in your country.

For example:

  • If you live in Mexico, and the declared value of your ordered items is over $ 50, for you to receive a package, you will have to pay additional import tax of 19% which will be $ 9.50 to the courier service.
  • Whereas if you live in Turkey, and the declared value of your ordered items is over € 22, for you to receive a package, you will have to pay additional import tax of 18% which will be € 3.96 to the courier service.
