Three Important Posts About The Features Of C++14

Three Important Posts About The Features Of C++14

Hello C++ Developers. As I write this post, the summer is over (if you live in the Northern hemisphere), and, in most countries, the new educational year has started, and we wish good luck to all students. If you are a student and want to learn C++, we have a lot of educational posts for you. This week, we continue to explore features from the C++14 standard which is available in C++ Builder. This week, we explain what is constexpr specifier and what are the relaxed constexpr restrictions in C++14. We explain variable templates in C++ and we teach how to use them in modern C++. In another post-pick, we explain what Aggregate Member Initialization is and we give very simple examples for you to try.

Our educational LearnCPlusPlus.org site has a broad selection of new and unique posts with examples suitable for everyone from beginners to professionals alike. It is growing well thanks to you, and we have many new readers, thanks to your support! The site features a treasure-trove of posts that are great for learning the features of modern C++ compilers with very simple explanations and examples.

RAD Studio’s C++ BuilderDelphi, and their free community editions C++ Builder CE, and Delphi CE are powerful tools for modern application development.

Where I can I learn C++ and test these examples with a free C++ compiler?

If you don’t know anything about C++ or the C++ Builder IDE, don’t worry, we have a lot of great, easy to understand examples on the LearnCPlusPlus.org website and they’re all completely free. Just visit this site and copy and paste any examples there into a new Console, VCL, or FMX project, depending on the type of post. We keep adding more C and C++ posts with sample code. In today’s round-up of recent posts on LearnCPlusPlus.org, we have new articles with very simple examples that can be used with:

Read the FAQ notes on the CE license and then simply fill out the form to download C++ Builder 11 CE.

How to use modern C++ with C++ Builder?

In C++, the constexpr specifier is used to declare a function or variable to evaluate the value of at compile time, which speeds up code during runtime. This useful property had some restrictions in C++11, these are relaxed in C++14 and this feature is known as Relaxed Constexpr Restrictions. In the next post, we explain what are the relaxed constexpr restrictions in modern C++.

The Aggregate Member Initialization is one of the features of C++. This feature is improved and modernized with C++11, C++14, and C++20. With this feature, objects can initialize an aggregate member from the braced-init list. In the next post, we explain what the aggregate member initialization is and what were the changes to it in modern C++ standards.

The template is one of the great features of modern C++. They are simple and very powerful statement in C++ that defines the operations of a class or function. The C++14 standard and above allows the creation of variables that are templated. In the last post-pick, we explain variable templates in C++ with examples that can be used in a professional IDE and compiler that supports C++14, C++17, and over. 

How to learn modern C++ for free using C++ Builder?

LearnCPlusPlus.org has been producing full of educational daily articles about C and modern C++ that can be used with C++ Builder, C++ Builder CE, Dev-C++, BCC Compiler and some other compilers such as the GCC compiler. Here are our post picks for today.

We like to hear your feedback. You motivate us so much with your likes and comments on social media (find us on Facebook, LinkedIn, Reddit, Twitter / X and all over) and here on the blogs too. Thank you for your valuable comments and questions. All of them help improve the quality of our future posts.

We have a lot of unique posts waiting to come. We keep adding new topics every week about C++ in general and specific topics for C++ Builder, Dev-C++, and for the other C++ compilers. Please keep following our LearnCPlusPlus.org website for the latest posts and updates. Feel free to comment and share with your colleagues, students, members – knowledge is power, and knowledge shared is empowering.

Do you want to know some news about C++ Builder 12?

A few weeks ago, David Millington, Senior Product Manager of C++ Builder, released a new video about “Behind the Build: RAD Studio and C++Builder 12.0“. According to David Millington’s post, C++ Builder is aiming to include some amazing features and a lot of performance improvements in operations. C++Builder 12 plans to bring some massive improvements, the enhanced Clang toolchain and Visual Assist integration, substantial improvements across RTL, STL, debugging, and more. Here is the full presentation,

Please note that all comments and statements about potential new features are subject to change and should not be relied on until the GA release of a product is available.

C++ Builder is the easiest and fastest C and C++ IDE for building everything from simple to professional applications. It is also easy for beginners to learn with its wide range of samples, tutorials, help files, and LSP support for code. RAD Studio’s C++ Builder version comes with the award-winning VCL framework for high-performance native Windows apps and the powerful FireMonkey (FMX) framework for cross-platform UIs.

There is a free C++ Builder Community Edition for students, beginners, and startups; it can be downloaded from here. For professional developers, there are Professional, Architect, or Enterprise version.
