Recipes to avoid 20 most common C++ multithreading mistakes

Last time in A Debugging Tip: Write Custom Visualizers in Visual Studio, I introduced the Visual Studio’s Natvis Framework and showed you a couple of samples. That article was just a basic introduction, and now it’s time to see more experiments.
Learn From Existing Code First of all, we can examine existing code that is shipped with Visual Studio and see how it works.

Вопросы со звездочкой обязательные, остальные вопросы по желанию.

Visual Studio 2017 shipped with first-class CMake support. Since then, we’ve continued to improve our CMake support by adding new features based on your feedback. We previously blogged about the built-in Incredibuild support for accelerating and visualizing your vcxproj projects, and many of you asked to get this same level of support for your CMake projects.

An algorithm of mine is being used in the Abseil C++ library for dynamic deadlock detection.  So, I thought I would give an overview of how it works.

As we learned to adapt to virtual conferences last year we presented more than 20 talks on a wide range of topics. I’ve collected them all here so you can easily learn about the latest advances in our tooling as well as the cutting edge of C++ features.

В этом видео мы с вами поговорим о топ 7 ошибок на собеседованиях в IT компанию. Мы разберём типичные ошибки и я расскажу о том, как правильно себя вести на интервью и какие подводные камни вас ожидают.

#1 Не проделана домашняя работа перед собеседованием

Многие приходят на собеседование совершенно не подготовленными и без знаний того, что будет происходить.

Вам нужно понимать как работает экономика найма, эйчары или рекрутеры которые будут общаться с вами в большинстве своем получают денежный бонус за найм. Поэтому вы должны понимать что они на вашей стороне, они заинтересованы в том , чтобы именно вы прошли и закрыли данную позицию, таким образом получив за вас бонус. Будьте найс, общайтесь с рекрутером, интересуйтесь компанией и скорее всего рекрутер сможет поделиться с вами инсайдерской информацией по самому собеседовании.

#2 Приходить на собеседование без базы проектов, если вы junior

Это касается обычно людей кто только начинает, нужно понимать что надо приходить на собес с сильной позиции. Когда…

“X-macros” is a neat C and C++ technique that doesn’t get enough advertisement.
Here’s the basic idea:

Suppose we have a table of similar records, each with the same schema.
In games, this might be our collection of monster types (each with a display name,
a representative icon, a dungeon level, a bitmask of special attack types, etc).
In networking, this might be our collection of error codes (each with
an integer value, a message string, etc).

We could encode that information into a data structure that we traverse
at runtime to produce interesting effects — for example, an array of structs
that we index into or loop over to answer a question like “What is the error string for
this enumerator?” or “How many monsters have dungeon level 3?”.

But the “X-macros” technique is to encode that information
in source code, which can be manipulated at compile time.
We encode the information generically, without worrying about
how it might be “stored” at runtime, because we’re not going to
store it — it’s just source…

Do you know how many ways we can implement a filter function in C++?
While the problem is relatively easy to understand - take a container, copy elements that match a predicate and the return a new container - it’s good to exercise with the Standard Library and check a few ideas.

C++20’s std::jthread is an exception-safe alternative of std::thread that politely stops and joins the thread automatically in the destructor.

Computers typically rely on binary floating-point numbers. Most often they span 64 bits or 32 bits. Many programming languages call them double and float. JavaScript represents all its numbers, by default, with a 64-bit binary floating-point number type. Human beings most of often represent numbers in decimal notation, such as 0.1 or 1e-1. Thus many … Continue reading Number Parsing at a Gigabyte per Second
