shared_ptr – Advanced STL, Part 1

Part 1 of my video lecture series exploring the Standard Template Library’s implementation is now available.  In this part, I explain how some of shared_ptr’s magic works, including type erasure and make_shared<T>()’s optimizations that save both space and time.   This advanced series assumes that you’re familiar with C++ and the STL’s interface, but not the STL’s implementation.  If you haven’t used the STL extensively yet, I recommend watching my introductory series.  For reference, here are all of the links:   [STL Introduction] Part 1 (sequence containers) Part 2 (associative containers) Part 3 (smart pointers) Part 4 (Nurikabe solver) – see Wikipedia’s article and my updated source code Part 5 (Nurikabe solver, continued) Part 6 (algorithms and functors) Part 7 (algorithms and functors, continued) Part 8 (regular expressions) Part 9 (rvalue references) Part 10 (type traits)   [Advanced STL] Part 1 ( shared_ptr)   Stephan T.

MSDN Channel 9 Video on Dynamic

About a month ago, Sam Ng and I sat down with Charlie Calvert and his video camera to record an interview-style video about dynamic. Have a look! http://channel9.msdn.com/posts/CharlieCalvert/CSharp-4-Dynamic-with-Chris-Burrows-and-Sam-Ng/ If you view it, I hope you find it helpful and informative. Also, I clearly need to take some kind of instruction on what to do with oneself on video when the other person is talking.
