A collection of video excerpts from Large-Scale C++ LiveLessons (Workshop): Applied Hierarchical Reuse Using Bloomberg's Foundation Libraries: www.informit.com/store/large-scale-c-plus-plus-liv… 5+ Hours of Video Instruction Understanding Applied Hierarchical Reuse is the gateway to achieving dramatic practical productivity gains for any enterprise engaged in large-scale C++ software development, spanning many versions of many products maintained over a substantial period of time. Description In this video training, John Lakos surveys problems associated with very large scale C++ development, and the cohesive techniques to address those problems, culminating in a proven component-based methodology refined through his practical experience at Bloomberg. The real-world application of this methodology—including three levels of aggregation, acyclic dependencies, nominal cohesion, fine-grained factoring, class categories, narrow contracts, and thorough component-level testing—will be demonstrated using the recently released open-source distribution of Bloomberg’s foundation libraries. After watching the video, viewers will be in an excellent position to selectively delve deeper into the various separate aspects of this comprehensive development methodology.
