Abstract

An introduction to the Standard Library and Concepts in C++0X. A general overview, and a couple of in-depth analyses of how to understand and use this new feature of the language.

Bio

Programming since ‘74, using C++ since ‘87. Gary has been one of the early abusers of the C++ language and compiler to twist it to make functional programing a reality. A technical consultant and volunteer to the C++ standards committee since 2001 where he has worked with many others on getting “bind”, “variadac templates”, “lambda”, “decl_type” and other useful stuff into the C++0X standard. A Google search of "Gary Powell" C++ will yield a large number of hits only a few of which are not him.
