C++ Templates and the STL

Matrice
Bishops Stortford, Hertfordshire, United Kingdom

Course Format: Classroom | E-learning | Virtual Class | Online | On-site | Blended | Self-paced

Course Description:

'' C++ added two powerful new programming styles to C. The first and most famous is object-orientation, and the second is template-based programming, sometimes known as generic programming. Although templates are covered in our basic C++ courses, the focus there tends to be on object-orientation, so this separate course is offered as a supplement. There is a second purpose to this course though--to cover, in detail, the template classes and functions of the standard library (known historically as the Standard Template Library or STL). These offer a powerful illustration of template design and most people will find that they need them at some time or other.

Duration and Construction
The course lasts four days, starting at 09.30 and finishing at 17.00. The delivery is via lecture and discussion.

Intended Audience
Participants should already have a good knowledge of C++ and object technology. Ideally they will have attended the Advanced C++ (C++ Traps and Pitfalls) course.

Aims
To understand how templates provide type-safe, reusable code
To understand C++’s template facilities
To understand the differences between and synergy between template programming and object-orientation
To become familiar with the elegant and powerful examples of template design provided by the Standard Template Library
To be aware of all of the standard components that the Standard Template Library provides
Deliverables
Lectures

Numbers
We recommend that there are no more than 12 participants, with the best results usually obtained when there are at least 8 participants. It is possible, by negotiation and mutual agreement, for more than 12 participants to be present.
