Backporting to the Future, Surfacing Composition, Lightning Talks – Auckland – 26 September 2018

What

This month we have two mini-talks previewing content to be presented at Pacific++ next month and a continuation of lightning talks left over from last month if time permits.

## “Backporting to the Future” – Andrew Paxie

Andrew will give a very draft version of the presentation he plans to give at Pacific++ next month. You will hear why he added C++11 support to Trompeloeil, a mocking framework that is top-to-bottom a C++14 library. After a brief introduction of its top-level features, Andrew will highlight the techniques he used to provide equivalent functionality in C++11. Compromises, limitations, and open issues will be discussed.

## “Surfacing Composition” – Toby Allsopp

Toby will also give an early version of part of his Pacific++ talk. He will talk about composition in software in general and C++ in particular

## “Lightning Talks”

If time permits:

* “Your C++ build system in 2020” – Nick Sarten
* “Naming Things” – Richard Maxwell
* “Finding stuff with the SQL…” – Paul Leslie
