One of the cooler projects I believe out there in the open source world is Clang — a ground-up implementation of a C/C++ front-end for LLVM. Thanks to a status message by Joel Falcou I looked at the cfe-dev mailing list archive and found this: I decided to see how well clang++ currently does at...
One of the more basic and fundamental idioms of C++ programming is that of RAII. It’s so simple and fundamental that C++ seems to be the only programming language that supports this idiom. From Wikipedia, RAII is:
Resource Acquisition Is Initialization, often referred to by the acronym RAII (or...
Sometimes you want to be able to write applications in C++ and expose a way of easily extending it by offering a scripting interface embedded to your application. Why re-invent the wheel when you can embed existing programming languages like Python into your C++ application? This article covers how you...

So after years of loyalty to Sourceforge on some of my open source projects, I’ve elected to move two of my current C++ projects to Github. Starting today the memcachepp client will be developed almost actively on Github, and soon the cpp-netlib project will be moving to Git too and will also have...
It’s been quite a while since I wrote on this blog mostly because I’ve been preoccupied with some full-time consulting work I’ve been doing. Now that this particular engagement of mine is coming to a close, I’m getting more and more time on my hands to do one of the more important...
Woohoo! That was a great Code Camp. Thanks to Woody and the gang for making this event happen. It was a fun and knowledge-filled event. I even got swags (a few books, a shirt, a small bag and a gym cup from Avanade). I saw a few Filipino devs in the event (Marlo, a .NET Developer from Long Beach and...
