Here’s another CppCon future talk we hope you will enjoy – and register today for CppCon 2024! Gazing Beyond Reflection for C++26 Friday, September 20 16:15 - 18:00 MDT by Daveed Vandevoorde Summary of the talk: In less than a year since its original publication, the WG21 proposal “Reflection for C++26” (P2996) has made good progress towards its titular goal.  From its inception, we intended that design to offer a modest-but-useful set of features with a solid foundation on top of which we will be able to incrementally grow an easy-to-use, rich, and extensible C++ meta-programming framework.  This keynote will review some of the fundamental tools proposed in P2996 and follow up with a vision for some additional capabilities that we’re working on. David ("Daveed") Vandevoorde is a Belgian computer scientist who lives near Princeton, NJ, USA. He is vice-president of engineering at the Edison Design Group (EDG), where he contributes primarily to the implementation of their C++ compiler front end. He is an active member of the C++ standardization committee where he is primarily active in the core language evolution work. His recent work in that context has primarily been about extending the capabilities of “constexpr evaluation”. Daveed is also one of the five members of the committee’s “direction group”. He is the primary author of the well-regarded “C++ Templates: A Complete Guide” (now available in its second edition).View the full article
