by Bartosz Milewski (Author)
C++ in Action introduces state-of-the-art C++ programming and problem-solving techniques for developing efficient, powerful, scalable software systems. Renowned software architect Bartosz Milewski starts from two key premises. First, programs aren't written for computers: they're written for other programmers who will have to integrate and maintain them. Second, software development languages aren't ends in themselves: they're tools to solve problems. Starting from these principles, Milewski presents a comprehensive guide to C++ software engineering for maximum performance, reliability, and maintainability. He shows how to use resource management and exception management together to build more reliable code. Next, he introduces new techniques that simplify Windows development despite the complexity of the Windows API and libraries. The book also includes detailed coverage of large-scale software and scalability, encompassing development strategies and tactics as well as management, planning, and project dynamics. An accompanying CD-ROM and a companion web site contain an extensive source code library.
