DESCRIPTION:
Recurring issues that C++ developers face in their day-to-day activity are discussed in depth and implemented in a generic way. Displaying extraordinary creativity and programming virtuosity, Alexandrescu offers a cutting-edge approach to design that unites design patterns, generic programming, and C++, enabling programmers to achieve expressive, flexible, and highly reusable code. This book introduces the concept of generic components—reusable design templates that produce boilerplate code for compiler consumption—all within C++. Get a value-added service! Try out all the examples from this book at codesaw. These include:Policy-based design for flexibilityPartial template specializationTypelists—powerful type manipulation structuresPatterns such as Visitor, Singleton, Command, and FactoriesMulti-method enginesFor each generic component, the book presents the fundamental problems and design options, and finally implements a generic solution. Loki provides out-of-the-box functionality for virtually any C++ project. Generic components enable an easier and more seamless transition from design to application code, generate code that better expresses the original design intention, and support the reuse of design structures with minimal recoding. The author describes the specific C++ techn
Loki is freely available; you can download it from awl/cseng/titles/0-201-70431-5. . C++ has the breadth necessary to make this possible. You come from a design meeting with a couple of printed diagrams, scribbled with your annotations. Historically, in spite of various levels of language support for design methodologies (such as object orientation), a significant gap persisted between the blueprints of a program and its code because the code must take care of the ultimate details of the implementation and of many ancillary tasks. Instead, you will find the fundamental components that make it easy to implement all of the above, and much more.
"The most important C++ book in many years" according to Bill Rubin. Many years ago, I began to feel that the power of templates in C++ has not been fully exploited. In more recent years, the emergence of the STL has shown that templates can be used to great advantage for containers, allowing conceptually simple generic implementations to be reused in . Make sure you have a good reference handy as somethings will probably go over your Very heavy on templates, and not for the novice reader. Make sure you have a good reference handy as somethings will probably go over your head.. "masterpiece" according to Fang Jin. First of all, i don't understand why so many ppl complaining that the book talks too much about template. The title says generic programming; even you are so genius that you find other way to accomplish generic programming, I'm sure all the concept still apply.I'm really happy i read
