This advanced C++ course provides both advanced C++ programming techniques and software design insight to help developers to create professional, high-quality code. The course provides deeper insight into C++ templates (type traits, SFINAE, C++20 concepts and forwarding references) and advice on how to create safer and cleaner function and class interfaces. Additionally, it provides an introduction to software design. For that purpose, it demonstrates the gravity of bad dependency management and shows how to properly reduce dependencies by means of design patterns.
Since 2020 we provide two types of C++ courses, each offered two times per year, once in English, once in German:
with two different levels of prerequisites.
This hybrid event will take place online and at HLRS, University of Stuttgart Nobelstraße 19 70569 Stuttgart, Germany Room 0.439 / Rühle Saal Location and nearby accommodations

Course participants should have at least two to three years of experience with the language. This includes a solid knowledge of the syntax of C++, experience with the standard library (std::vector, std::list, std::unique_ptr, …), hands-on experience with both template-based and inheritance-based designs and some experience with design patterns.
Participants can bring their own laptops, but HLRS will also provide machines with an up-to-date C++ environment. The programming tasks, including both Makefiles and CMake files, will be distributed before the course.
If you will participate remotely, you should have access to an C++20 programming environment.
For similar courses, please have a look at the 3- or 4-day advanced C++ courses at LRZ , the 4 day course at VSC in Vienna or directly on Klaus Iglberger's course page.

This course will be hybrid, i.e. it will take place at HLRS on-site but it will also be possible to attend online. Participants, online as well as on-site, have to be aware and agree that they might appear in the live video stream taken by a camera in the back of the lecture room or by a webcam on laptops. The live stream will not be saved. We strongly recommend to attend this course on-site since on-site attendance is much more effective and efficient in our experience. Therefore we might give priority to on-site over online participants during registration.
Registration closes on April 27, 2025.

Our course fees include coffee breaks (in classroom courses only).
