Episodes
In this episode we get a final look at the design of C++23, see how far we can push compile-time computation - and even code generation - in C++20, look at some tools to help us to get there, and what C++ could have been if we weren't burdened with backwards compatiblity.

In this episode we look back on C++ in 2021, and back even further over the evolution of functions and lambdas. Then we look forward to proposals that may or may not make it into C++ 23, as well as some of the conferences happening this year.

This month discuss the best ways to pass string_views, depend on Catch2 v3 and write beautiful C++. We talk more about contracts and look at some new and upcoming tools from JetBrains, as well as new releases of existing tools from JetBrains, SonarSource and Microsoft. Phil also still manages to get an off-by-one error when mentioning off-by-one errors, at the end!

This month we attempt an experimental cross-over episode with cpp.chat: in effect we have Jon Kalb on as a guest. Was it a successful experiment? You be the judge! We look at static analysis, expressive interface and move semantics, three new proposals, and go a little deeper on conferences - especially CppCon, which just passed.

Lots of standards news, as many proposals are adopted into the C++23 working draft. Plus our usual round up of interesting blog posts and articles, including one from Phil that bridges the worlds of SonarSource and JetBrains. And CLion and ReSharper C++ start their latest EAPs.

As JetBrains celebrates 10 years of C++ support in their tools, we look at more modules, less [[nodiscard]] - the possibility of contracts and much more!

A jam-packed episode, from executors to aborting contracts, via iterators and parallel algorithms, concepts, sanitizers, tools and more...

This month we reflect on text formating, compile times, the C++23 schedule, a round-up of tools news, and what C can do that C++ can't! Standards news includes if consteval, starts_with and ends_with and preventing std::strings from being constructed from nullptr.

This month has a lot of errors. Finding coding errors, at runtime or compile/ analysis time. Handling error paths in code - all the different ways. But we also look at building LLVM in 90 seconds, handling ABI breaks, vcpkg, CLion 2021.2 EAP, C++Now 2021 videos, Meeting C++ and C++ on Sea.

This month we expect the std::expected, subscript in multiple dimensions, zip and enumerate our way to defining contracts, while surveying the C++ community. We also take a look at the latest CLion and ReSharper C++ releases, GCC 11, a Cuda extension for VS Code, and the Pure Virtual C++ and C++ Now conferences (which have already now passed before this episode was released).
Published 05/13/21
This month we chat about Contracts, Conferences and colonies, CLion and const (east), and a round-up the Russian Coat Check Algorithm, ReSharper-C++, return types and ridding C++ of macros.

In this month's round-up we cover the latest C++ committee plenary session, what's been approved to go into the C++23 standard, other proposals being worked on, news about Concepts and Modules, Clang Power Tools, Postfix completions in CLion and the C & C++ browser Search Extension

This month we talk about more news from around the C++ community - with a distinctly 20s theme. You can watch the show on YouTube, listen to it as a podcast, or read it as a C++ Annotated post on the CLion blog. You can even subscribe to the text format as the C++ Annotated newsletter.
