Stuff I never remember
Unnecessary copies w/ `auto`
Beware unncessary copies w/ auto; default semantics is to make a copy.
// Typically there's no reason to copy.
for (const auto &Val : Container) { observe(Val); }
for (auto &Val : Container) { Val.change(); }
// Remove the reference if you really want a new copy.
for (auto Val : Container) { Val.change(); saveSomewhere(Val); }
// Copy pointers, but make it clear that they're pointers.
for (const auto *Ptr : Container) { observe(*Ptr); }
for (auto *Ptr : Container) { Ptr->change(); }
Don't evaluate `end()` in loops
// BAD
BasicBlock *BB = ...
for (BasicBlock::iterator I = BB->begin(); I != BB->end(); ++I)
// ... use I ...
// GOOD (unless you are mutating BB; use the above loop if you are, and document you are doing so)
BasicBlock *BB = ...
for (BasicBlock::iterator I = BB->begin(), E = BB->end(); I != E; ++I)
// ... use I ...
Use `const` iterators if not mutating a structure
Expanding on the above:
BasicBlock *BB = ...
for (BasicBlock::const_iterator I = BB->cbegin(), E = BB->cend(); I != E; ++I)
// ... use I ...
Dynamic loading of DLL/DSOs
Example of loading OpenCL dynamically. Uses a Python parser script to create special header file with defines that map both functions and does appropriate type conversion. https://github.com/opencv/opencv/pull/1542/files
Boost.DLL: Boost library for easily loading DLLs (e.g. for plugins). Cross platform, but requires runtime libraryes boost_system (integrated into C++11?) and boost_filesystem (integrated into C++17).
