C++ 11 Programming Training Course

This live, instructor-led training (delivered online or onsite) targets developers looking to apply advanced C++ techniques to create complex, secure, and high-performance systems and applications.

By the conclusion of the program, participants will have the ability to:

• Establish a fully equipped development environment, including all relevant C++ libraries, packages, and frameworks.
• Comprehend the core features, components, and basic elements of the C++ language.
• Develop complex C++ applications utilizing advanced programming methodologies.
• Produce code in C++ that is both readable and optimized for speed and security.
• Recognize frequent security pitfalls in C++ and apply techniques to mitigate them.
• Deploy testing strategies to maintain code quality and enforce security controls.
• Utilize C++ diagnostic and debugging tools effectively.

This C++ course delves into essential modern programming concepts, such as templates, move semantics, and first-class functions.

A strong focus is placed on robust memory management through smart pointers and adherence to secure coding standards.

Participants will explore runtime errors, operator overloading, polymorphism, and STL containers with their associated algorithms.
The curriculum wraps up with a foundational overview of effective testing strategies for C++.

Developing secure C and C++ applications demands a rigorous approach to defending against malicious exploitation, memory corruption, and bypasses in input validation. This program delves into critical vulnerability patterns, such as buffer overflows, use-after-free errors, integer overflows, and type confusion. Learners will implement secure coding guidelines, leverage static analysis tools, and adopt defensive programming techniques to eradicate weaknesses, enforce strict input sanitization, and deliver hardened software capable of withstanding sophisticated cyberattacks.

Can C++ effectively support embedded systems, including microcontrollers and real-time operating systems?

Is object-oriented programming a viable approach for microcontroller-based solutions?

Does the abstraction level of C++ negatively impact hardware efficiency?

This instructor-led live training explores these critical questions. Through discussion and practical exercises, it illustrates how C++ can be leveraged to create embedded systems that deliver accurate, readable, and efficient code. Participants apply theoretical knowledge by developing a sample embedded application in C++.

Upon completing this training, participants will be equipped to:

• Grasp the core principles of object-oriented modelling, embedded software development, and real-time programming
• Write embedded system code that is compact, high-performance, and secure
• Prevent code bloat associated with templates, exceptions, and other language features
• Comprehend the specific challenges of applying C++ in safety-critical and real-time environments
• Debug C++ applications directly on target devices

Target Audience

• Developers
• Designers

Course Format

• A blend of lectures, discussions, exercises, and intensive hands-on practice

This instructor-led, live training, available in Denmark (online or onsite), is tailored for C++ developers seeking to accelerate applications with CUDA. It focuses on developing high-performance GPU kernels and utilizing parallel algorithm libraries for tasks in scientific computing, data processing, and machine learning.

This training is designed to introduce C++ as a natural extension of C for object-oriented embedded system development. Since C++ encompasses C, the course transitions smoothly from C to C++, exploring the underlying implementation details of the language. This insight is particularly valuable when working within the constraints of resource-limited embedded environments. Recent major revisions to the C++ standard, specifically C++11 and the emerging C++14, bring significant benefits such as high-performance memory management, concurrency for multicore environments, and low-level bare-metal programming close to the hardware.

GOAL/BENEFITS

The primary objective of this class is to equip you with the skills to use C++ in a “correct way”.

• Present C++ as a viable object-oriented alternative within an embedded system context
• Highlight the similarities and differences between C and C++
• Understand various memory management strategies, with a focus on the move semantics introduced in C++11
• Examine the underlying mechanisms to see how different C++ paradigms translate into machine code
• Leverage templates for type-safe, high-order abstractions in bare-metal programming, including memory-mapped I/O and interrupts, particularly utilizing the variadic templates added in C++11
• Explore useful design patterns that are especially applicable in embedded contexts
• Complete exercises to practice and reinforce key concepts

AUDIENCE/PARTICIPANTS

This training is tailored for C++ programmers who aim to begin implementing C++ in an embedded system environment.

PREVIOUS KNOWLEDGE

Participants should possess basic knowledge of C++ programming, equivalent to the content covered in our “C++ – Level 1” and “C++ Level 2 – Introducing C++11” courses.

PRACTICAL EXERCISES

Throughout the training, you will apply the presented concepts through a series of practical exercises. We will utilize the open-source and free integrated development environment provided by Eclipse.

Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) in C applies core OOP principles—such as encapsulation, inheritance, and polymorphism—within the C programming language.

This instructor-led live training, available either online or on-site, is designed for developers looking to leverage C to create modular, maintainable, and scalable applications using object-oriented techniques.

Upon completion of this training, participants will be equipped to:

• Set up and configure a C development environment tailored for structured programming.
• Utilize C constructs, including structs and function pointers, to apply object-oriented design principles.
• Implement encapsulation and abstraction within C programs.
• Develop reusable and maintainable code by applying object-oriented patterns in C.

Course Format

• Interactive lectures and guided discussions.
• Extensive exercises and practical drills.
• Hands-on implementation within a live-lab environment.
