Hi,
I started this blog because I wanted to share my knowledge on both practical aspects of programming in C++ and some theoretical background on C++ design and current evolution. I have been developing commercial applications in C++ since 2004 and have been studying the progress of ISO C++ Standards Committee. I believe some of the posts may prove useful to C++ programmers.
Commenting
When you want to place a piece of code in the comment use tag [code]
in square brackets, like this:
[code language="cpp"]
template <typename T>
void myCode ()
{
std::vector<T> vec;
}
[/code]
This should render the following code:
template <typename T> void myCode () { std::vector<T> vec; }
hi, I’m a chinese reader of you.
It’s wonderful of your article.
If more picture and less word expression, I think it will be better.
Dzięki za ten blog.

Hi Andrzej! I just wanted to say that I really enjoy your writing style. I read one of the posts today and it was a pleasant and useful experience.
Thanks for the blog. Can you write an article on C++ build systems. There does not seem to be a good build system like maven for c++. Can you enlighten the average programmer about c++ build systems used to manage large c++ code bases. Imo that is a big reason why people prefer java to c++. makefiles are just terrifying.
I have read through a couple of your articles and although they are well written, I believe you should try to expand upon a topic a bit more. Many of your articles are too brief, and would be better if you thoroughly explained a topic (people love graphs and pictures).
In any case, best of luck and your articles are good, just suggesting an improvement!
I am new to programming and needed if you could help me with what books I should start with. I have few knowledge about c programming but I wanted to start learning c++ from scratch.
Hope you could be able to suggest me some books please.
@Xylo, you are not the first person to ask this question. See this link for an axhaustive answer: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/388242/the-definitive-c-book-guide-and-list.
Good luck with your study.
how about including a link to the boost library incubator on your list of C++ links – http://www.blincubator.com ?
Greetings, Andrzej!
Quite some months ago I stumbled upon your blog and until now I really enjoy your articles. I even learned a few new useful things from them.
As a matter of curiosity I checked the other blogs and sites you’ve linked and found those dead links you might want to remove:
http://talesofcpp.fusionfenix.com/
http://cpp-next.com/
http://cppannotations.sourceforge.net/cppannotations/html/
http://accu.org/index.php/journals/c78/
Thanks Evrey.
I have updated the C++ Annotations link. C++Next site is unfortunately gone.
But these two appear to be working for me.

Ah, fine. Yesterday they appeared to be broken. Glad, they work now.
I am new to c++, this blog is awesome!!!
Hi,
Well done on your blog, very interesting and well written :+). Just thought I would let you know there is an easy to read html version of the cppCore Gulines with links that work here: http://isocpp.github.io/CppCoreGuidelines/CppCoreGuidelines
Hello, your blog is very interesting for me. I want to invite you to read the article on our blog http://www.viva64.com/en/b/
I think you will be interested
Do you want comments on typos, for example, on your posts? If so, do you want comments on the individual posts? Do you want them here?
Whatever works for you. Posting under an individual post makes it easier to identify where the fix needs to go. Some people send a post with identified typos with a request to remove the post afterwards, and this is what I do.
Thanks.
Hi Andrzej, you write interesting stuff and I would like to subscribe to your blog by email, but can’t find input box to input my email. is sub by mail possible?
I must admit I do not know how this blog infrastructure works. After your comment, I have added a “Follow” button just after RSS feed. Maybe when you decide to follow you will get email notifications. will that work for you?
I had to create wordpress account to be able to apply the “follow” button, I suppose notifications about new content will be delivered to wordpress account. If I don’t receive any emails in the next week or more then I’ll know it doesn’t work.
