Broken Books
With the addition of features like auto, initializer lists, lambdas, and smart pointers, a lot of C++98 programming idioms and guidance have become obsolete now that C++11 is here. Thus, as Herb Sutter said at GoingNative 2012, a boatload of code examples in the best C++ books are now “broken“.
As a result, new and revamped versions of the books will take awhile to become available. Here’s Herb’s “estimated time of arrival” for several stalwart books:
In the meantime, you can feast your eyes on, and feed the left side of your brain with, these links:
- Bjarne Stroustrup’s C++11 FAQ page
- Wikipedia C++11
- Scott Meyers Overview Of C++11
- C++11 Features To GCC Compiler Map
- C++ Standards Committee Home Page
- GoingNative 2012
- C++11 Features in Visual C++ 11
- Clang Compiler C++11 Support
- Writing Modern C++ Code (Herb Sutter)
Do you know of any other good links to add to this post?
