Next BeCPP UG Meeting Planned For November 24th, 2016

October 12, 2016 Marc Gregoire Events

The next meeting of the Belgian C++ Users Group is planned for Thursday November 24th, 2016 at 18:00 at Nikon Metrology HQ.

Nikon Metrology ( http://nikonmetrology.com/ ) is sponsoring this event by providing the location, drinks and catering.

The agenda is as follows:

• 18:00: Sandwiches.
• 18:30: Session 1: What’s new in C++17? (Peter Van Weert)
  This talk will give an overview of all the new features scheduled to be included in C++17.
• 19:30: Break
• 19:45: Session 2: Mobile App Development for Multiple Platforms with Visual C++, 2016 (Marc Gregoire)
  Visual C++ supports mobile app development for Windows, Android, and iOS from a single code base, optionally with a thin platform-specific UI layer. The resulting binaries can be deployed to an emulator or to a real device and debugged on both, all from within Visual C++. This presentation is a follow up of my previous BeCPP presentation, and as such the session will only briefly cover the basics of cross-platform mobile app development. Please view https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Y47g8xNE1o or https://channel9.msdn.com/events/CPP/CppCon-2015/CPPConD02V019 for this material in depth. In this follow up, we go over the new features added for cross-platform development since last year. Additionally, we continue where last year’s session ended, and will go deeper on how to write your applications to have a native look-and-feel UI on each of the different platforms.
• 20:45: Short presentation and guided tour of Nikon Metrology followed by a drink.

The event is free for everyone, but you need to register for it.

There are 50 seats available for this event.

We will be giving away a copy of C++ Standard Library Quick Reference.

Note: The deadline for registrations is November 20th, 2016!
