API Design for C++ Martin Ry
Publisher: Morgan Kaufmann

вот например дочитал давеча subj. Based on hearsay, Qt is quite complicated and hackish inside, but what it presents to the outside is pure delight in terms of API design. Our eventual goal is to get to a point where the API is ready for proposal to the C++ committee as a reference implementation. I've been thinking a lot about APIs and their design recently. Если бы автор был честен, то книжка была бы крайне короткой - на пару примерно таких предложений: Application Binary Interface in C++ is compiler specific. I stumbled on When I first started learning C++ (back in the bad old days) I was convinced that any 1st year student could design a better programming language. Somewhat later I had the pleasant experience of writing C++ code with Qt. Today, I want to give some insight into the new language extensions, officially called C++/CX, which was designed to support the new API model in Windows 8. The task of designing a web service or API that adheres to the REST guidelines then becomes an exercise in identifying the resources that will be exposed and how they will be affected by the different request methods. In this post we look at the details of the design document which outlines this new API. Martin Reddy draws from his experience on large scale, collaborative software projects to present patterns and practices that provide real value to individual developers as well as organizations. Today we are announcing Casablanca, a Microsoft incubation effort to support cloud based client-server communication in native code using a modern asynchronous C++ API design.
