Almost two years ago I blogged about founding C++ User Groups, since then I have learned a lot more on the topic, and I want to share that experience with you in this blog post. While my focus here at Meeting C++ is C++, this post is more on the topic of a User Group, so its also useful to you, if you want to start a user group on something else. Yet, I might strive away into C++ lands in this post...

I used to do overviews on all papers for a meeting, and when I find the time, I will do this for upcoming meetings again. I will try to post a best-of later, with all the good stuff on concepts, modules and more later. Currently I'm to busy, I just got back from CppCon, and will go to the Qt World Summit next week (meet me there!).

This is the third part of my series on writing applications with C++ using Qt and boost. This time I focus on building factories, using boost::factory, with the ultimate goal to have widget factory producing QWidgets. The last part was about building trees and treemodels for QTreeView.

After I finished my talk at NDC Oslo about encryption in C++, the last question I was asked by an attendee was about having std::vector in public interfaces as an argument, and if that would be considered bad practice. So, is it good or bad to use std::vector in a public interface?

Things have changed a little bit since I first visited C++Now in 2012. Today I do quite a lot of traveling for C++ and Meeting C++. I've been to Aspen in May to visit C++Now for the 4th time, and just returned from NDC Oslo. Still ahead in the second half of the year are 4 trips to Berlin, and flying to CppCon later this year.
An Interview with John Lakos

In 2013 and 2014 I interviewed Michael Wong at C++Now. This was a follow up on his keynote at Meeting C++ in 2012, and it was interesting to learn from Michael about the C++ Committee, Transactional Memory, Parallelism and his views on C++. So, with this years C++Now coming up, I thought about recording again an interview there, as I now also have far better camera and video editing options...
