In this post, we'll discuss the implementation of a static type checker for a simple, C-like language called B-Minor. B-Minor is a small language designed for use in an undergraduate compilers course, and it supports expressions, basic control flow, functions, and static type checking. Here's an example B-Minor program: // Prints the sum of all multiples of 3 and 5 less than n sumMultiples: function integer (n:…

std::generator is a C++23 feature that enables you to write concise, straightforward functions that generate sequences of values on-demand without manually managing state. It builds upon C++20's coroutines, providing some standard library support for this powerful, but complex, language feature. As of Visual Studio 2022 version 17.13, we ship an implementation of std::generator in our […]

Take this stupid example: class Base { public: virtual void ant() { i++; }; virtual void dec() { i--; }; int i; }; void function(Base * base) { base->ant(); base->dec(); ...

Trying to have it both ways.

You're testing the code, but who's testing the tests? Enter the mutants.

When you see the C++ standard's specification on value categories, it's likely your eyes gloss over and you think to yourself - "why do I ever need to know this?". At least that's what I thought when I first took a glance. Over the years, I've ran into issues assuming a simplistic model of value categories, and I regret not taking a long hard look at the standard in the beginning. This is my attempt to explain…

Putting theory into practice.

I haven't even proofread this yet, but in case this is something you care about, here's how the new shader language is different from C, or GLSL, etc, if you just want to get a quick feel for what I'm aiming for. Also, if you have a background in C or GLSL, then rather than read a formal document about this language, it's more efficient to just tell you about the parts that are different, so you can go "huh" or…

Let's go back to the future! When I began to research and write this article, all of these amazing years and the rich history of C and C++ came back to my mind. The C++ compiler history really can be traced back to the 1970's with the birth of the C Language. C++ IDE features...
