Enjoyed the flexibility and variety of topics, the combination of trainings and exercises meant that I could apply what I'd learnt straight away. I also enjoyed the projects on the last day to bring everything together.

Scope of knowledge covered. Not everything was explained in depth, but that is probably a matter of time. The training lasts 3 days. During these 3 days, various topics were covered, which can be explored further after the training. The training was definitely beneficial. A lot of knowledge and topics were presented in an engaging way.

I liked being submerged into the C++ language for 5 days - not interrupted by regular work - in a row a lot ... Personally not as experienced in C++ as my colleagues, I decided to join this course to take a deep dive. The dive triggered me hugely to learn more ... which is exactly what I wanted to achieve. I appreciated the expertise knowledge of the trainer - and that of my colleagues. The fact that topics were very quickly touched and not addressed in detail, is what I expect from an advanced course. Sometimes too quick for me to follow (but that's a known and accepted drawback from my joining this course :-)) ... but on the other hand provided me with a fairly complete overview of the subtleties of the language. Thanks a lot for presenting a course in this way! Most appreciated!!!

Using C++ in Embedded Systems - Applying C++11/C++14
21 HoursThis training intends to introduce C++ as the common extension of C when applying object-oriented embedded system development. Since C++ encloses C, this training takes us from C to C++ in a natural way, and looks under the hood of how C++ is implemented. This is especially valuable to comprehend when applying C++ in an embedded resource limited environment. The C++ standard has recently been undergoing a major revision, a.k.a. as C++11, and a new one is on its way, C++14. This course addresses subjects brought in with these revisions that are especially useful like high performance memory management, concurrency making use of a multicore environment, and bare-metal close to the hardware programming.
GOAL/BENEFITS
The major objective of this class is that you shall be able to use C++ in a “correct way”.
- Introduce C++ as an object oriented language alternative in an embedded system context
- Show the similarities ‑ and differences ‑ with the C language
- Comprehend different memory management strategies – especially the move semantics introduced with C++11
- Look under the hood and understand what different paradigms in C++ leads to in machine code
- Use templates to achieve type safe high order abstractions for bare-metal close to the hardware programming – memory mapped I/O as well as interrupts – especially the variadic templates introduced with C++11
- Provide some useful design patterns especially applicable in an embedded context
- A few exercises in order to practice some concepts
AUDIENCE/PARTICIPANTS
This training is aimed C++- programmers who intend to start using C++ in an embedded system context.
PREVIOUS KNOWLEDGE
The course requires basic knowledge in C++ programming, corresponding to our trainings ”C++ – Level 1” and ”C++ Level 2 – Introducing C++11”.
PRACTICAL EXERCISES
During the training you will practice the presented concepts in a number of exercises. We will use the open and free integrated development environment from Eclipse
