https://www.cppnow.org   / cppnow   --- Definition-Checked Generics (Part 1): The Why and How - Chandler Carruth, Josh Levenberg, Richard Smith - CppNow 2023 Slides: https://github.com/boostcon --- This two-part talk explores what fully definition-checked generic programming is, like what was tried with C++0x concepts, how it compares to C++20 templates and concepts, and what advantages checked generics provide. In the first session, we will work through a series of examples to understand how C++20 concepts work and how they struggle to provide the fundamental benefits of definition checking. We will examine how C++0x concepts, Swift, Rust, and Carbon achieve these benefits and the core differences between their approaches. We then dig into how this form of generic programming provides a better foundation across many aspects of the language compared to C++, and our exploration of this space in Carbon. In the second session, we dive more deeply into the most challenging aspects of building a compelling definition-checked generics system into C++ or a C++-like language based on our work on Carbon. With each of these problem areas, we again survey existing approaches from C++, Swift, and Rust. We will then show some limitations and challenges with these approaches, such as undecidability or non-termination, and our proposed approach in Carbon. --- Chandler Carruth Chandler Carruth is the technical lead for Google's programming languages and software foundations. He has worked extensively on the C++ programming language and the Clang and LLVM compiler infrastructure. Previously, he worked on several pieces of Google's distributed build system and made guest appearances helping maintain a few core C++ libraries across Google's codebase. He received his M.S. and B.S. in Computer Science from Wake Forest University, but disavows all knowledge of the contents of his Master’s thesis. When not hammering away on a weirdly shaped keyboard, he enjoys sushi, fine dining, brown spirits, and everything about wine. Josh Levenberg Josh Levenberg is on the Carbon Language team at Google, driving large parts of the language design across its type system. He has worked on a wide range of C++ software over the past 30 years including TensorFlow and MapReduce. Prior to working at Google, he worked in the video game industry, and has a Ph.D. in Math. When not building large, complex C++ software systems he both juggles and practices ballroom dancing. He also has a surprising distinction of having an anime convention named after him (JoshCon). Richard Smith Richard is a professional C++ language lawyer at Google and one of the three leads of the Carbon language project. He has worked in great depth on the C++ core language, has authored over a hundred C++ committee papers, and was the editor for the C++17 and C++20 standards. Until recently, he was the lead developer of the Clang compiler. When not working on the guts of programming languages, he likes to play pool, and to annoy his cats with mediocre piano performances. --- Register Now For C++Now 2026: https://cppnow.org/registration/ * --- Videos Filmed & Edited By Bash Films: https://bashfilms.com/ YouTube Channel Managed & Optimized By Digital Medium Ltd: https://events.digital-medium.co.uk --- CppNow 2024 https://www.cppnow.org   / cppnow   --- #boost #cpp #cppprogramming
