Modern C++ Design

Generic Programming and Design Patterns Applied

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Demonstrates 'generic patterns' or 'pattern templates' as a way of creating extensible designs in C++. This book introduces the concept of generic components-reusable design templates that produce boilerplate code for compiler consumption, within C++.
