From the article:

A few weeks ago someone asked me for advice on finding a specific bug in a larger C艹 code base...

I don't remember much of the details, but one of the challenges was that at least some of the code based used public members, and in order to find the bug a change in these members is what they wanted to understand. Adding out put statements into a setter function wasn't possible, as the code did not have those. My suggestion was using a conditional breakpoint. And it also made me curious, if and how they're used with in our community.

by Jens Weller

From the article:

Just this week I had the opportunity to recompile one of my Qt Applications to build it with Qt6. Here is some of the results.

The application in question manages parts of the conference, and hence is written in Qt for the UI and uses SQLite as datastorage, so Qt also used for this and as I learned for a few other things too...

Improving Stability with Modern C艹, Part 4 — Memory Management

by Ralph Kootker

From the article

When we started learning C艹, we were all taught that every new needs a corresponding delete. But sometimes we'd forget, or some code might throw an exception we weren't ready for, and then we'd leak memory. [...] With rare exceptions, C艹 programmers should not have to write new or delete ever again.
