Product Description

Review



“The content is, as always, first-rate. Even though I've moved to Java as my primary language, I still find myself thumbing through the book and, now, this CD. But, where this product REALLY shines and distinguishes itself is in its production. This is so much more than just a book thrown onto a CD. Every self-respecting Java and C++ programmer should add this CD to his or her collection!”


—Chris Cleeland, Senior Software Architect, Catalyst Solutions



“On close examination, I find Meyers' books to be superb…If you actively code C++ and have less than five years' full-time on-the-job experience in C++, you probably should obtain this CD-ROM set, which is both inexpensive and exceptionally easy to browse and absorb. It reads smoothly, and is factual. Meyers' examples are elegant and nearly egoless. His advice is invariably helpful. Let us acknowledge that Scott Meyers has a stylistic instinct and an aesthetic for genuine workplace C++ as fine and flawless as one programmer can admit of another programmer. Let us also acknowledge a great web editing and production job. This is top flight self-instruction technical literature tastefully and professionally redesigned in CD-ROM form with an eye to readability and ease of navigation. And considering that, in addition to the content, Meyers also designed and implemented the presentation format of this fine CD-ROM, he gets an extra thumbs up. A job well done.”


—Jack Woehr, Dr. Dobb's Electronic Review of Computer Books

“Wow! All I can say is Wow! If you are a C++ programmer, get this book.”


—C/C++ Users Journal


“I am happy to report that Scott Meyers has broken the logjam of fat books, higher prices, and thin CD-ROMs with Effective C++ CD.”


—Windows Developers Journal



Product Description

Now all 85 of Scott Meyers' invaluable C++ rules—and more—are available on one CD! Scott Meyers is an undisputed guru of C++, best known for his incisive guidelines on effective use of the language. This CD includes the complete text of his Effective C++, Second Edition, and More Effective C++, plus a collection of recent C++ magazine articles. Far more than the sum of Meyers' two books, the CD has more than 2,000 separate links: within and between the books, among the books and the articles, and from the books and articles to the Internet. Meyers personally selected the magazine articles to complement the material in his books, and they make the CD even more comprehensive and up-to-date.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hand-crafted hyperlinks, 29 Mar 2001
By A Customer
Most authors just shovel the text of their books onto CD and leave it at that. Others make a half-hearted stab at adding a little extra, but Scott has REALLY gone to town. Most of the hyperlinks are there because he put them in there, not because some program or parser put them in. This alone makes it worth having, as the hyperlinks are intelligent and useful. But even more, Scott has included magazine articles and other bonus material. I believe he has gone on record as saying it probably took him as much effort to produce this CD as it did to write "Effective C++". I believe him!

Thoroughly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars Instant access to Scott's books with no loss of desk space., 11 Jan 2001
By A Customer
I've been programming in C++ for a couple of years now, and Scott's books were responsible for huge improvements in my programming style and understanding of the language.

They've been sat on my desk ever since I bought them, and the only way I could think to improve them would be to give them an easily searchable index, which is exactly what this CD does.

If you work with C++ regularly this is money well spent.
