C++ Templates: The Complete Guide (Second edition.)

For years, C++ Templates has been the “bible” of templates: no other guide has compared in comprehensiveness, depth, or accuracy. Now, three world-class C++ experts have thoroughly updated this classic reference and tutorial for the new C++1x standards and the language’s many new features and capabilities.

David Vandevoorde, Nicolai M. Josuttis, and Doug Gregor have revised the book’s previous coverage to reflect newer ideas, while adding extensive coverage of modern template-related topics such as lambdas, inline namespaces, and user-defined literals.

Throughout, they carefully retain the features that made the original C++ Templates so successful: its plethora of small, illustrative examples; its clear explanations of crucial details ignored elsewhere; and its illumination of non-template issues that turn out to be more relevant than many developers expect.
