( )Scott Meyer 55 Logics It's still too early to see how the C++ story will play out. Can a language keep growing forever without at some point seeing some sort of rebellion from the users and compiler writers who just cannot keep up? But, right now, we have to deal with C++ as it is, and Scott Meyers remains a fine guide in explaining just what the heck is going on in the language, and how the various pieces fit together. Many years ago I read the first version of this book; and this 3rd edition is a fine update, doing a good job of explaining a number of the new language features that have been added over the last ten years. This is the best C book I've ever read. I HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend to anyone new to C . I will be sure to reference it at often as possible and recommend it to as many people as possible. no reviews | add a review

| Book description |
|
The book opens with some hints for porting code from C to C++ and then moves on to the proper use of the new and delete operators in C++ for more robust memory management. The text then proceeds to class design, including the proper use of constructors, destructors, and overloaded operator functions for assignment within classes. (These guidelines ensure that you will create custom C++ classes that are fully functional data types, which can be copied and assigned just like built-in C++ classes.)
The author also provides a handful of suggestions for general class design, including strategies for using different types of inheritance and encapsulation. Never doctrinaire and always intelligent, these guidelines can make your C++ classes more robust and easier to maintain. --Richard Dragan
