Meeting C++ online

Meeting C++ is hosting an interview with Alex Dathskovsky, who is going to speak about Unlocking the Value of C++20 Features at Meeting C++ 2025.

Talk description:
With C++23 already making headlines and C++26 on the horizon, it’s tempting to focus on the bleeding edge. But in practice, many companies are still navigating the shift to C++20 — not beyond it. This talk is designed to help developers make the most of this pivotal transition.
While the "big four" features of C++20 — concepts, coroutines, ranges, and modules — often steal the spotlight, there’s a rich set of lesser-known but immensely useful additions that can dramatically improve the way we write modern C++.
In this session, we’ll go beyond the headlines and dive into the real-world power of C++20. Using practical examples, we’ll explore improvements to `constexpr`, enhanced lambdas, the spaceship operator, `consteval`, templated lambdas, and more — all the features that silently unlock better performance, maintainability, and expressiveness.
Whether you’re still on C++17 or already experimenting with C++20, this talk will bridge the gap between potential and practice — and get you ready for what’s next.

We'll start at 20:00 (8:00PM) CEST.

Meeting C++ is hosting an interview with Marcell Juhasz, who is going to speak about Hacking and Securing C++ at Meeting C++ 2025.

Talk description:
This session dives deep into the world of vulnerabilities from a C++ developer's perspective. Using a simple embedded device as the playground, where the memory model is stripped to the bare essentials, attendees will explore how classic attacks like buffer overflows can be used to hijack control flow, inject code, and manipulate the stack.

Everyone has heard the warnings about buffer overflows, use-after-free, memory corruption, and other infamous vulnerabilities lurking in low-level code. But many developers accept that these traps should be avoided without truly understanding how the exploits work. In this talk, attendees will see hands-on examples of how memory vulnerabilities arise, how they’re exploited, and why they’re dangerous.

But this session is not just about breaking things, it is about building them right. We will explore how modern C++ techniques like smart pointers, bounded containers, and RAII can prevent these issues altogether. By the end of the talk, developers will not only understand the risks but feel confident applying C++ best practices to write safer, more robust code.

Whether you are a systems programmer, embedded developer, or security-minded engineer, this session will deepen your understanding of C++, not just as a powerful language, but as a tool for writing secure, reliable software.

We'll start at 20:00 (8:00PM) CEST.

This event will host talks that are prerecorded during the event for Meeting C++ 2025.

Potential Schedule:

13:00 Lounge / Hangout
13:30 Welcome message & audience instructions
14:00 TBA
15:15 TBA

The talks are recorded as is, so we'll have the questions later in the lounge at the last talk table. Between talks is a 15 Minute break.
