Using C++14 in an Embedded “SuperLoop” Firmware - Erik Rainey - CppCon 2022

https://cppcon.org/ --- Using C++14 in an Embedded “SuperLoop” Firmware - Erik Rainey - CppCon 2022 https://github.com/CppCon/CppCon2022 This presentation covers what the execution environment of an embedded "superloop" firmware is in order to describe later why certain C++14 language and library features are used and others are not. This environment lacks many basic features and capabilities that traditional C++ programmers may think are common place but is able to be programmed in C++14 (and later) with a specific design paradigms and guidelines. Programmers with deeply embedded C experience will be familiar with some of the limitations of the environment but may find the C++ solutions quite refreshing! The talk will conclude with some comments on C++17 / C++20 features which will be quite valuable to embedded environments of all types. --- Erik Rainey Erik is a Senior Software Engineer at Amazon working in the Prime Air on low-level/embedded firmware written in C++ for drones.
