C++ Training in Västmanland

This instructor-led live training, conducted in Västmanland (online or onsite), is designed for developers who wish to apply advanced C++ programming techniques to develop complex, secure, and high-performance systems and applications.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

• Set up a development environment that includes all C++ libraries, packages and frameworks.
• Understand the features, components, and basic elements of C++.
• Create complex C++ applications using advanced programming techniques.
• Learn how to write readable, fast, and secure code in C++.
• Know the common security pitfalls in C++ language and how to mitigate them.
• Implement test strategies for code quality and security control.
• Use the diagnostics and debugging tools in C++ development.

Developing secure C and C++ applications demands a robust approach to counter malicious exploitation, memory corruption, and vulnerabilities related to input validation bypasses. This course explores common vulnerability patterns such as buffer overflows, use-after-free errors, integer overflows, and type confusion. Participants will learn to apply secure coding standards, utilize static analysis tools, and adopt defensive programming practices to mitigate weaknesses, enforce strict input sanitization, and build software that is resilient against cyber threats.

Is C++ appropriate for embedded systems, including microcontrollers and real-time operating systems?

Should object-oriented programming be employed in microcontrollers?

Is C++ too abstracted from the hardware to be efficient?

This instructor-led live training addresses these questions, demonstrating through discussion and practical exercises how C++ can be utilized to develop embedded systems with code that is accurate, readable, and efficient. Participants will apply theory to practice by creating a sample embedded application in C++.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

• Grasp the principles of object-oriented modeling, embedded software programming, and real-time programming
• Generate code for embedded systems that is compact, fast, and safe
• Prevent code bloat resulting from templates, exceptions, and other language features
• Understand the challenges associated with using C++ in safety-critical and real-time systems
• Debug a C++ program on a target device

Audience

• Developers
• Designers

Course Format

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

This is a 2 day course aimed at C++ programmers who are interested in applying the new C++11 standard in their industry. It is particularly useful for financial applications developers covering all new features with coding examples to be executed within the lab

This training aims to introduce C++ as the natural evolution of C for object-oriented embedded system development. Since C++ encompasses C, this course guides you smoothly from C to C++, revealing the underlying mechanics of C++ implementation. This insight is particularly valuable when deploying C++ in resource-constrained embedded environments. With the C++ standard recently undergoing a major revision known as C++11, and C++14 following closely, this course covers new features that are especially beneficial, such as high-performance memory management, concurrency in multicore environments, and bare-metal programming close to the hardware.

GOAL/BENEFITS

The primary objective of this course is to enable you to use C++ in a 'correct' and effective manner.

• Introduce C++ as an object-oriented language alternative within the embedded system context
• Highlight the similarities and differences between C++ and C
• Understand various memory management strategies, particularly the move semantics introduced in C++11
• Examine the internals to understand how different C++ paradigms translate into machine code
• Utilize templates to create type-safe, high-level abstractions for bare-metal, hardware-close programming, including memory-mapped I/O and interrupts, with a focus on variadic templates introduced in C++11
• Present useful design patterns especially applicable in embedded contexts
• Include exercises to practice key concepts

AUDIENCE/PARTICIPANTS

This training is designed for C++ programmers who wish to begin using C++ in embedded system environments.

PREVIOUS KNOWLEDGE

The course requires basic knowledge of C++ programming, equivalent to our 'C++ – Level 1' and 'C++ Level 2 – Introducing C++11' trainings.

PRACTICAL EXERCISES

Throughout the training, you will practice the presented concepts through a series of exercises. We will use the open and free integrated development environment provided by Eclipse.

This instructor-led, live training in Västmanland (online or onsite) is designed for web developers interested in mastering functional programming with C++.

• Apply functional programming solutions to boost web application performance.
• Avoid data mutation and side effects by leveraging functional programming.
• Build web applications adopting a functional programming style.

This instructor-led, live training in Västmanland (online or onsite) is aimed at developers who wish to use C to apply object-oriented programming techniques and improve software design.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to: implement object-oriented concepts in C, design modular applications, apply encapsulation and abstraction, and structure maintainable codebases.

This instructor-led, live training in Västmanland delivers in-depth exploration of Qt and its modules.

By the end of the session, attendees will have the necessary knowledge and practical skills to develop their own C++ applications using Qt.
