Type Deduction in C++14
Explore the intricacies of type deduction in C++14 through this comprehensive CppNow conference talk. Delve into various methods of naming types, including auto, auto &, auto const &, auto &&, decltype(auto), and decltype(some-expression). Learn how C++14 extends type deduction to function return types and discover when to leverage this powerful feature versus being more explicit. Examine the potential for new library designs enabled by these features, as well as associated risks. Gain insights on creating modern C++ libraries that effectively utilize type deduction without compromising readability. Cover topics such as value categories, reducing redundancy, casts, pushback and inplace back operations, auto variables, template type deduction, member functions, reference collapsing, and standard common types. Access accompanying slides for a comprehensive understanding of type deduction in C++14.
