A little while ago I came over a post on stackoverflow.com that listed a lot of books about C++, including a link to where one could buy the new C++11 specification. I simply decided to share that list with everyone who happens to pass by this little blog.
Experimenting with the future
I recently answered a question on Stack overflow about threads, and since I haven't used things like std::future and std::async before, I thought it would be a good time to write an experimental program with it.
TutorialMUD hiatus
I haven’t been able to post new updates to the TutorialMUD series lately. Mostly because I have been very busy at work, but I have also started working again on one of my private projects. I will also not be able to post anything for another couple of weeks, as me and my wife will be traveling to the Philippines.
I have the next couple of articles almost finished, so I hope to put them up in quick succession when I get back home to Sweden.
Tutorial MUD, part 5: Networking, part 1
By now we have a program that obediently sits at the command prompt, waiting for us to press CTRL-C so that it can shutdown in a nice way. It all works, but it’s not very exciting.
In this part we will begin writing one of the interesting parts of a MUD server, the part that actually puts the Multi User in Multi User Dungeon: Networking.
