Listen "Real World Template Metaprogamming"
Episode Synopsis
Rob and Jason are joined by Edouard Alligand to discuss the use of C++ template metaprogramming in real world projects.
Edouard is an experienced kernel programmer, but has spent the last several years working on the hot topic of next-generation databases at software publisher quasardb. He has a strong background in low level programming, beginning with his first programming language: Z80 assembly. Edouard is a C++ enthusiast with a strong taste for template metaprogramming, generic programming, and you're not doing it right if the compiler doesn't crash programming.
