Hello everyone,
We had a special guest speaker on Tuesday, Feb 20th 2024. Andreas Fertig!
This is not Andreas’ first appearance in our Meetup and I was super happy to host him again!
This session went over an interesting and extremely useful information – Runtime vs Compile time polymorphism.
The event page can be found here.
Recording, as usual can be found in the San Diego C++ Meetup Youtube channel.
Presentation material can be found in our dropbox location (join the meetup to gain access).
Summary of the material discussed:
- Cost of runtime polymorphism.
- CRTP as an alternative, lower runtime cost alternative.
- Policy based design.
- Example of policy – std::unique_ptr and the deleter policy.
- std::sort and the sorting policy.
- Another example of the Policy based idiom, checked array boundaries with multiple types of handling errors – all with Policy design.
That’s it for this month!
Next time, it’d be our #60 session. Yes! 5 years of San Diego C++ Meetup. We have over 1650 members. We started off on March 2019, with around 70 members!
Thanks for reading,
Kobi
