Slides of the 3rd of April 2012 BeCPP Meeting
I would like to thank everyone who joined us for the first Belgian C++ Users Group meeting that was held on 3rd of April 2012.
Something extraordinary happened with that meeting. Most user groups have an average of 20% to 30% of people that are not showing up but that have registered for the event. For our first C++ meeting, it was the opposite; 18 people had registered for the event, but 19 people arrived for the meeting đ
If you couldn’t attend the meeting in person, or if you would like to go over the slides again, you can download them below.
Presentation: “Writing Modern C++” by Marc Gregoire
Presentation: “Impact of C++11 Move Semantics on Performance” by Francisco Almeida
I hope to see you all on future C++ users group meetings.

Visual Studio 11 Beta Announced
Microsoft has announced that it will release Visual Studio 11 Beta on 29th of February, and that it will be âgo live,â meaning you will be allowed to start using it in production environments. Read the official announcement.
The user interface of the new Visual Studio 11 is completely overhauled. It now follows the Metro principles of clean UI that uses typography and white space for layouting instead of lines. Below are two screenshots of the UI in the beta version.
As you can see, it’s completely different compared to Visual Studio 2010. Themes are supported, so you’ll be able to design whatever theme you want. An in-depth discussion of these changes can be found on the Visual Studio Team Blog.
The product pages have also been updated with information about the upcoming releases. One new version of the product is called “Team Foundation Server Express Beta”, which is a free collaboration software targeted at small teams. Read more about it here.
