Modern C++: C++ Patterns to Make Embedded Programming More Productive - Steve Bush - CppCon 2022

Steve Bush presents modern C++ patterns and idioms that improve expressiveness and maintainability in resource-constrained embedded systems.

cppcon.org/ --- Modern C++ to Impress Your Embedded Dev Friends - C++ patterns to make embedded programming more productive - Steve Bush - CppCon 2022 github.com/CppCon/CppCon2022 C++ is often talked about in terms of what cannot or should not be done in the context of embedded systems. In contrast, this talk is about some of the things that modern C++ idioms allow us to do better or more expressively than comparable operations in C. We will cover several patterns that allow an embedded developer to express intent clearly, ease maintenance, and encourage re-use while avoiding overheads that are costly in resource-constrained systems. Examples include initialization structures that are self-describing and IDE-friendly, small code implementations that make available sections of the C++ Standard Library for embedded use, and tools for understanding and controlling our use of limited memory resources. --- Steve Bush Steve is a Research Fellow at the consumer products manufacturer Procter & Gamble. He works in upstream research and development on smart and connected products, some of which have been featured at the company's LIfe Lab at the consumer electronics show CES. Though involved in all phases of embedded product development, much of his work revolves around embedded firmware development. Steve has been an advocate in his research community of modern programming practice, including the use of modern C++ to create more expressive, reusable firmware. --- Videos Streamed & Edited by Digital Medium: online.digital-medium.co.uk #cppcon #programming #embeddedsystems
