"There is no point in developing software unless you care about it doing it well." (Andrew Hunt, David Thomas: The Pragmatic Programmer)
This advanced C++ training is a course on object-oriented (OO) software design with the C++ programming language. The focus of the training are the essential OO and C++ software development principles, concepts, idioms, and best practices, which enable programmers to create professional, high-quality code. The course will not address special areas and applications of C++, such as for instance Template Meta Programming (TMP), or the quirks and curiosities of the C++ language. It rather teaches guidelines to develop mature, robust, and maintainable C++ code. The following topics will be covered:
Day 1 schedule:
- Essential Object-Oriented Design Principles
- The core of object-oriented programming
- The SOLID principles
- Concepts and the STL
- Overview of the STL
- Proper use of the STL
- Class Design
- Know what your compiler does for you
- Inside/Outside: What should (not) be inside a class?
Day 2 schedule:
- Class Design (cont.)
- Const Correctness
- Interface design
- Visibility vs. Accessibility
- Robust Code
- Error propagation
- Exception Safety
- RAII
- Handling Legacy Code
- Proper Use of Dynamic Inheritance
- Non-public inheritance
- Public inheritance
Day 3 schedule:
- Dependency-Breaking Techniques
- Non-Intrusive Design
