Yeah I remember doing that in one project. And then at least I found c++ and ATL back when it came out. I never went back to doing COM in C after that.

I mean a readable implementation of tuple with minimal overhead is a great case for me (went from around 1.6k lines to approximately 250 lines). I wrote an implementation including…

The answer is being debated at the moment in c++ papers and building on experience from other languages with extensive compile time evaluators like D. One thing that is happening i…

We love-hate you and the Norwegian Fjellaber as well, you Swedish drunkard. A Dane.

While this is helpful in a way this blog also contains outdated information. Given that in embedded you most of the time build the world and have most of your stuff as source code …

I will be honest mentioning Zephyr in a situation when talking about how outdated the Unix design philosophy is, is a bit funny to me since Zephyr (like ecos kinda did once) tries …

Apparently according to some ACCU and CPPCon talks by Khalil Estel this can be largely mitigated even in embedded lowering the size cost by orders of magnitude.

Are you aware of the Freestanding definition of STL? See here: https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/freestanding.html Large and useful parts of it are available if you run with a newe…

No it is gaining compile time reflection. But RTTI has been a thing for a long time.

c++ gets a lot of hate much of it based on past traumas with specific codebases and history of use. This has built up into a culture where people who have little to no experience w…

A lot of the stuff they are working on for c++29 is exactly what you are wishing for (me too by the way).

Yeah no switching a group of developers over to some new language is not more efficient. It is a lot of work. And on top of that you will need to add time to either wrap your exist…

I work on a c++23 embedded platform that is used in very small microprocessors up to embedded linux stuff. We ship stuff that needs to run constant and C was just too unsafe for us…
