Product Description
- Geared to experienced C++ developers who may not be familiar with the more advanced features of the language, and therefore are not using it to its full capabilities
- Teaches programmers how to think in C++–that is, how to design effective solutions that maximize the power of the language
- The authors drill down into this notoriously complex language, explaining poorly understood elements of the C++ feature set as well as common pitfalls to avoid
- Contains several in–depth case studies with working code that′s been tested on Windows, Linux, and Solaris platforms
From the Back Cover
C++ is one of the most popular programming languages, but this fast and powerful language is also notoriously complex. Many useful aspects of C++ remain a mystery to even the most experienced programmers. Too often, programming books concentrate more on the syntax of the language and less on its real–world applications. This code–intensive, practical guide changes that by teaching all facets of C++ development, including effective application design, testing, and debugging. You′ll learn simple, powerful techniques used by C++ professionals, little–known features that will make your life easier, and reusable coding patterns that will bring your basic C++ skills to the professional level.
After a quick review of C++ fundamentals, the authors launch into teaching you how to use C++ in your daily work. They show you various programming methodologies and good programming style, as well as ways to increase the quality of your code and improve your programming efficiency. You′ll discover how to write cross–language and cross–platform code, how to perform unit testing and regression testing, and how to use the standard C++ library. By the end of the book you′ll be armed with a wealth of reusable coding patterns that can be applied to all your projects.
You will be able to master the C++ language with all its idiosyncrasies, and take advantage of its powerful capabilities for large–scale software development.
