Addressing these challenges, Amar Mahmutbegovic, an advocate for modern C++ in embedded development, shows you how to harness zero-cost abstractions, compile-time checks, and powerful modern C++ capabilities to preserve performance while achieving safer, cleaner code. This book bridges the gap between traditional C and advanced C++, helping you retain the efficiency C developers demand while unlocking the safety and expressiveness of modern C++. Starting with a modern development environment setup, including a Docker container for seamless example replication, you'll overcome the hurdles of using the C++ standard library in memory-constrained settings and get acquainted with the Embedded Template Library (ETL) as an alternative. The book walks you through essential C++ concepts before exploring advanced topics such as templates, strong typing, error handling, compile-time computation, and RAII. Through practical examples, you'll implement a sequencer, write a type-safe HAL, and apply patterns like Command, State, and Observer to solve common embedded development problems. By the end of this book, you'll have learned how to apply modern C++ to develop robust, modular firmware with performance matching or exceeding hand-coded C solutions.What You Will Learn: - Debunk myths and misconceptions about using C++ in embedded systems- Set up build automation tailored for C++ in constrained environments- Leverage strong typing to improve type safety- Apply modern C++ techniques, such as Resource Acquisition Is Initialization (RAII)- Use Domain Specific Language (DSL) with a practical example using Boost SML- Implement software development best practices, including the SOLID principle, in embedded developmentWho this book is for: This book is for embedded developers who primarily use C and want to adopt a modern C++ approach. It introduces fundamental C++ concepts, making it suitable for beginners, while also assuming basic familiarity to fully leverage advanced features like compile-time computation. Even those with prior C++ experience will discover new ways to apply modern best practices to write more efficient and maintainable embedded applications.Table of Contents- Debunking Common Myths about C++- Challenges in Embedded Systems with Limited Resources- Embedded C++ Ecosystem- Setting Up the Development Environment for a C++ Embedded Project- Classes - Building Blocks of C++ Applications- Beyond Classes - Fundamental C++ Concepts- Strengthening Firmware - Practical C++ Error Handling Methods- Building Generic and Reusable Code with Templates- Improving Type-Safety with Strong Types- Writing Expressive Code with Lambdas- Compile-Time Computation- Writing C++ HAL- Working with C Libraries- Enhancing Super-Loop with Sequencer- Practical Patterns - Building a Temperature Publisher- Designing Scalable Finite State Machines- Libraries and Frameworks- Cross-Platform Development", "item_img_path" : "https://covers2.booksamillion.com/covers/bam/1/83/588/114/1835881149_b.jpg", "price_data" : { "retail_price" : "39.99", "online_price" : "39.99", "our_price" : "39.99", "club_price" : "39.99", "savings_pct" : "0", "savings_amt" : "0.00", "club_savings_pct" : "0", "club_savings_amt" : "0.00", "discount_pct" : "10", "store_price" : "" } }
