Flutterby™! : Advent of Code in C++ Template Metaprogramming

Advent of Code in C++ Template Metaprogramming

2023-12-08 19:01:19.558802+01 by Dan Lyke 0 comments

I've recently been diving back into the C++ code which generates some of my other web sites, and am tearing my hair out (yes, I'm bald) trying to get code which compiles on Linux running on the Mac as well. Which is frustrating, especially when I'm trying to figure out which incantations are necessary to get Boost compiling property on gcc vs clang, let alone other library issues (Hello GNU libcgipp...).

Anyway, all of this is making me have a rekindled appreciation for Perl, or straight-up C, but some of the template hacks in Made of Bugs: Advent of Code in C++ Template Metaprogramming is exciting me.

All <cite>ed text will point to the Flutterby knowledge base. Two enters (ie: a blank line) gets you a new paragraph, special treatment for paragraphs that are manually indented or start with "#" (as in "#include" or "#!/usr/bin/perl"), "/* " or ">" (as in a quoted message) or look like lists, or within a paragraph you can use a number of HTML tags:

We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
