Rate this book
Based on the successful first edition, Secrets of the C++ Masters (1995), this book provides a path to true C++ enlightenment. It has been carefully revised to thoroughly cover advanced programming techniques using C++. It includes valuable techniques organized into three Smart Pointers, Class Hierarchies, and Memory Management, and includes applications-oriented coverage of numerous topics including template creation, exception handling, pointers, optimization, and types. The focus of the book is on ANSI C++, and it includes one 3.5" disk for Windows that features all the source code for examples presented in the book.

* A revision of the highly acclaimed Secrets of the C++ Masters
* Bridges the gap between C++ as described in beginner and intermediate-level books and C++ as practiced by experts
* Valuable techniques are described and organized into three simple indirection, class hierarchies, and memory management
* Provides in depth coverage of template creation, exception handling, pointers and optimization techniques
* Book focuses in ANSI C++ and so is compiler independent
* Includes a 3.5" disk for Windows with source code of all examples in the book

Книга предназначена для разработчиков с опытом программирования на C++. В начальной части, в виде обзора, в ней описываются некоторые нюансы применения языка, в частности шаблонов. Далее описываются различные идиомы: различные виды указателей ("умные", "ведущие", "грани", "гениальные", "невидимые"), гомоморфные иерархии классов, техники управления памятью. В последних главах автор собирает все описанное ранее воедино и "реализует" на основе этого пару механизмов сборки мусора.

Все описываемые идиомы и алгоритмы сопровождаются примерами кода, в котором невольно начинаешь разбираться и вникать. В коде обнаружилось немало ошибок, однако, после изучения примеры становятся понятны и добавляют ясности к описанию той или иной техники.

Не смотря на то, что книга издана в конце 90х, она не теряет актуальноcти для C++ программистов.
