C++ Accelerated Massive Parallelism will aid developers in building massively parallel applications.

After eight years of development, the programming language update will likely be released later this year.

Ovidiu Cucu writes that struct and class keywords aren't as different as you might think.

Embarcadero Technologies has rolled out inexpensive starter editions of Delphi and C++ Builder, its popular RAD frameworks.

Distinguished engineer talks up the Go application development language.

The search giant has created a crossbreed of two application development languages.

This IDE is a replica of the original .NET editor and also contains Windows support.

Overriding a virtual member function in C++ can go wrong in many ways, most of which the compiler won't detect. Learn how three new C++0x attributes can help you avoid the bugs associated with overriding virtual functions.

The "most vexing parse" is a mysterious syntactic specter that the compiler interprets in the least expected manner, biting innocent programmers who think their code means something entirely different. Find out where that vexing parse might occur and how to avoid it.

A base class with multiple constructors forces a derived class to define corresponding constructors that merely forward their arguments to the matching base constructor. In C++03, you define the derived class's constructors manually. Learn how C++0x's inheriting constructors feature automates this process, thereby simplifying code maintenance and making your code more readable and secure.

Find out what dangers race conditions in general and C++0x data races in particular pose to your concurrent code, as well as the strategies for avoiding them.

A new C++0x feature called forward enum declarations allows you to declare an enumeration without providing its enumerators list. Learn how using it can avert long compilation times and ODR violations.

Danny Kalev asks Bjarne the hard questions about concepts and C++'s future.

The C++ standards committee has voted to remove concepts from C++0X, leaving a huge hole in the next specification.

A new C++0x feature called a class member initializer allows you to specify a single initializer in the very declaration of a data member. Learn how to use this feature to simplify your constructors' code, reduce potential bugs, and make your code more readable.

Migrate your fixed-sized sequences to std::array, which offers a secure, efficient, and convenient alternative to built-in arrays—sans the overhead of vector.

A good parasite class promotes the use of objects that are never destroyed, a controversial notion in C++. So why use it? What other advantages does it offer? Can you declare additional member functions in such a class? The inventor of the good parasite technique explains.

Learn how to use attributes, a new C++09 feature, to specify additional information about your programming constructs conveniently and portably.
