C++ is one of the most important and influential programming
languages for application development. It supports the modular,
object- oriented and generic programming models and its flexibility
has been one of the main reasons why it has been so successful. With
the emergence of the Boost Libraries (www.boost.org)
we see that C++ is brought to a new level, namely a set of reusable
and modular template libraries that C++ developers can use in their
applications.
This book is dedicated to a number of Boost libraries for
higher-order functions, data types and data structures, libraries
for text and string processing, multi-threading, random number
generation and more. We also discuss how Boost and design patterns
are used to promote the flexibility of code.
Each library is described in a step-by-step way. Numerous examples
are given to show the functionality of each library. The full source
code is freely available to purchasers of the book.
