Embracing Modern C++ Safely

In Embracing Modern C++ Safely, John Lakos and Vittorio Romeo analyze each core language feature of "Modern C++" (introduced by C++11 and C++14), illuminating exactly what developers and teams must know to succeed. Lakos and Romeo present extensive real-life code examples; thoroughly describe pitfalls that arise when engineers with diverse experience use these features together, and illuminate issues that repeatedly occur in real-world application development. Drawing on their extensive C++ experience, they focus on major features of C++ 14 and C++ 11 that have been around long enough to be thoroughly evaluated. You will learn which "modern" features are safe under almost all circumstances; which carry a real risk of misuse and suboptimal results if programmers are improperly educated and trained; and which are generally "unsafe," and should be used rarely if at all. If you are ready to safely make the most of Modern C++, the in-depth, hands-on insights from this guide will help you improve your productivity and build far more robust software.
