How would you implement a function that searches for files with a given extension? For example, finding all text files? or *.cpp files? To code that solution you need a way to iterate through directories. Is that possible in C++ out of the box using the standard library? Let’s see some techniques and new elements that C++17 added.

It’s April Fool’s Day, so let’s have some fun :) Last year I announced fake news about C++: deprecation of Raw Pointers and two years ago I wanted to have C++18. So what’s coming this time?
A quiz!
Answer the questions, and find two that makes no sense and don’t have any correct answer… can you solve such test?

Lambdas are one of the most prominent and useful elements of modern C++. They can significantly reduce the code and make it more expressive. The feature might look easy, but there are a lot of details that you need to know to master it. This free ebook will help you with that!
The C ++ 17 standard consists of almost two thousands pages. Two thousand pages describing every single aspect of the language. Some pages relates to all kinds of details, exceptions, and things that you do not care about every day. We will try to look at a few such cases, which we hope never see in the production code.
In the first part of the series we looked at lambdas from the perspective of C++03, C++11 and C++14. In that article, I described the motivation behind this powerful C++ feature, basic usage, syntax and improvements in each of the language standards. I also mentioned several corner cases.
Now it’s time to move into C++17 and look a bit into the future (very near future!): C++20.

I released “C++17 In Detail” in August 2018, and I set the status to 90%. I didn’t expect that writing of that remaining 10% would take me so long :) Now it’s high time to set the counter to 100%.
That’s why I’m pleased to announce that my book “C++17 In Detail” is now done!
See the recent changes and a new code sample!
