https://cppcon.org --- C++ Under the Hood: Internal Class Mechanisms - Chris Ryan - CppCon 2024 --- My talk will examine the internal C++ mechanisms around the topics of: The C++ onion as it relates to construction, destruction and polymorphism, Order of Object construction & destruction, and pre- & post-main() processing. Member Function Pointers (not your father’s C function pointer), Member Data Pointers (not raw pointers) (data-morphic functionality), Understanding the Call Stack, Stack Frames and Base Pointer mechanisms. --- Slides: https://github.com/CppCon/CppCon2024/...

He is well experienced in Modern C++ on extremely large/complex problem spaces and Classic ‘C’ on Embedded/Firmware devices (large & small). Chris has no interest in C#/.,Net, Java, js or any web-ish tech. --- CppCon is the annual, week-long face-to-face gathering for the entire C++ community. The conference is organized by the C++ community for the community. You will enjoy inspirational talks and a friendly atmosphere designed to help attendees learn from each other, meet interesting people, and generally have a stimulating experience. Taking place this year in Aurora, Colorado, near the Denver airport, and including multiple diverse tracks, the conference will appeal to anyone from C++ novices to experts.
