Meeting C++ in Berlin, Germany 2024

November 14, 2024

We’re excited to sponsor and attend Meeting C++, that’s taking place in Berlin (and online) between the 14th and 16th of November. Meeting C++ is a conference organized by the independent Meeting C++ platform, aimed at supporting the C++ community. think-cell has been partnering with Meeting C++ since 2012, and we’re delighted to continue our collaboration. This year, we are sponsoring the videos of the conference. Two of our speakers are also presenting their talks, and we’ll have a booth setup on-site.

Our Senior Software Engineer, Sebastian Theophil will present his talk “Classes C++23 style” where he’ll show the best C++23 practices to define common types of classes. The talk will cover the spaceship operator, conditionally explicit conversions, C++26 contracts, reference-qualified member functions, and deducing this. By starting from common use cases, the audience will learn not only how to use these C++ features, but also when to use them. 

Software Engineer Jonathan Müller is presenting “An (In-)Complete Guide to C++ Object Lifetimes”. The audience will learn about the rules for object creation and destruction, and when it is safe to form pointers and references to an object. They will also learn about advanced functions like std::launder, std::bit_cast, and std::start_lifetime_as.

Three members of our development team will be on-site at the conference to network with the C++ community, tell participants about our C++ Developer role, the engineering team’s ways of working, and answer any questions attendees may have.

If you’d like to watch the conference talks and learn more about in-depth C++ topics, head over to YouTube where all videos can be viewed.
