Buenos días C++ aficionados! This time: Odin Holmes tells us how move semantics, <algorithm>, custom allocators, lambdas, static checking, and return value optimization let you advance your C++ coding style. He’ll shows us how to get rid of syntactical sins such as out-parameters and raw-loops and simplify our code. Save the date. See you there!
HandsOn: Interaktive Entwicklung
Ein paar Entwickler plaudern mit Keyboard und Beamer über verschiedene Probleme im Entwicklungsalltag und ihre Lösungsansätze, Tipps und Tricks. Dabei sind Beiträge, Fragen oder Lösungsansätze von weiteren Freaks hochwillkommen! Hier werden keine vorgefertigten Lösungswege vorgesprochen. Vielmehr geht es darum, zusammen die beste Lösung zu finden. Und wer möchte darf auch einfach nur zuhören!

Hi folks! Sorry for the delay. We finally managed to find a speakers for this month’s meet-up. This time we have two short talks about some boost libraries. Veit Jahns will give a introductory talk about boost::{bind,function} and the std:: counterparts. Also, we might hear a small intro to boost::any and boost::string_ref, two wonderful libraries that are really useful at times! As usual, we have a beer after the talks. See you!

Greetings C++ enthusiasts. This time we will have a introductory talk about the Rust programming language (rust-lang.org). Rust 1.0 will be released on May 15th so we thought we give it a shot. The talk will be held by Kai Michaelis and Benjamin Kircher. Everyone is welcome. See you there.
Important: We changed the location of the meet-up!
This time we have been invited by otris software AG in Dortmund to have our April meet-up at their place. Their HQ is near Dortmund Hauptbahnhof so it is easily reachable 🙂 Soft-drinks will be provided.
The talk will be held by Jörn Seger: Test Driven Development.
Excited? Then don’t miss it!

Hi there C++ aficionados. Jörn stepped in and will give a standup talk. Something about testing your code. Test your code? Real men don’t test their code, don’t they?
The talk will last more or less one hour so that there is still plenty of time for discussions or beer tastings afterwards.

Greetings C++lers! I’m pleased to announce this months meet-up at Das Labor in Bochum. We have Kai Michaelis talking to us about Domain-specific Languages in C++. See you there.

In March we will have a guest speaker from outer space – err – abroad. Pieter Hintjens will visit our user group!
Pieter Hintjens is a writer, programmer and thinker who has spent decades building large software systems and on-line communities, which he describes as “Living Systems”. He is an expert in distributed computing, having written many protocols and distributed software systems. He founded the ZeroMQ free software project in 2007, and in 2013 launched the edgenet project to build a fully secure, anonymous peer-to-peer Internet. He is the author of “ZeroMQ – Messaging for Many Applications” (O’Reilly), “Code Connected”, and “Culture and Empire: Digital Revolution”. His blog is at hintjens.com.
He’s been a strong critic of the patent system, leading the European effort to ban software patents from 2005 to 2007.
His company, iMatix, provides support to the ZeroMQ market, and in this role he’s traveled the world, teaching, coaching and helping others to organize successfully.
He defined the term “Social Architecture” as the process, and the product, of planning, designing, and growing an online community, and has promoted the techniques of social architecture in articles and at conferences.
In his free time he plays a Kawai KL25 piano, badly. He earned his Certified Pistol Instructor badge in Waxahachie, Texas in 2012, though does not own a gun. He learned to drum with Mamady Keita in Brussels in 1998-2000, and plays most weeks with an African dance troupe. He lives in Brussels with his family. He’s a member of Mensa and Rotary International and spends most of his time writing and contributing to the ZeroMQ project and other projects.
Since Pieter is not from Germany, the talk will be held in english (I hope). And if we don’t stop him, the talk will not end at 09:00 p.m., so bring plenty of time with to the meeting, or you will suffer from a buffer overflow 😉
We will grab a beer afterwards.

Hello C++ Freaks. I’m pleased to announce that Alexander Matus is talking to us about Type Erasure in C++ on Thursday, December 18th at the usual place at das-labor.org. Also, some folks have been at Meeting C++ conference in Berlin and will give us a short wrap up of things happened there, uh, and maybe updates about the latest state of Scott Meyer’s hairdo. See you on Thursday.

Hello C++ aficionados! We will have a very interesting talk from René Korthaus about building C++ projects with Jenkins (http://jenkins-ci.org). The meet up is in Bochum at Das Labor, Thursday next week at the usual time. I hope you all can make it!
BK
