'No Bugs' Bunny

Once upon a time, in a rabbit outsourcing warren of Bunnylore, there was a young software developer bunny. And as a developer, he has had one very unusual treat: he was obsessed with eliminating all the bugs he can get his forelegs on. So, it is not surprising that his friends called him a “No Bugs” Bunny (or simply “NoBugs”).

Later on, he grew up, so he decided that “Bunny” in his name has became inappropriate (not to mention potential arguments with Warner Brothers), so he has asked all his friends to call him “No Bugs” Hare. He has made a career as a team lead and software architect, and they lived happily ever after.

App-level Developer on std::error Exceptions Proposal for C++. Part II. The Discussion.

posted by

Quote: “having an ability to associate extra information with std::error is important for us – both for our own std::error exceptions, and for conversion from existing C++ exceptions”
Another Quote: “I think that current C++ standard is Badly Lacking(tm) a concept of ‘segfault’ (which is supported by CPUs on VAST majority of modern systems with modern C++ compilers)”

App-level Developer on std::error Exceptions Proposal for C++. Part I. The Good

posted by

Quote: “No single error handling method is good enough for ALL the projects – which in turn leads to segmentation, with some of the projects using exceptions, and some others using error codes”
Another Quote: “Right above I said that I like the std::error exception proposal a.k.a.[P0709R0]. However, as soon as I look at competing proposals, I begin to love it.”

Quick Update on C++ Compiler Bug Hunt (overall, 15 bugs reported, 8 already fixed)

posted by

Some time ago, I wrote a post about kscope – mini-project on finding and reporting bugs in modern C++ compilers. The point was that there is a way to use C++ facilities to make C++ code self-mutating (more strictly – pseudo-randomized using externally supplied ITHARE_KSCOPE_SEED macro), which allows finding certain classes of bugs during randomized […]

‘Speedy Gonzales’ Serializing (Re)Actors via Allocators

posted by

Quote: “Allocator-based serialization for (Re)Actors is extremely fast (for x64 – around tens of ms per 100MB of state)”
Another Quote: “Per-(Re)Actor allocators can be implemented without any changes within (Re)Actor itself (i.e. all the necessary changes can be confined to Infrastructure Code).”

Parallel STL for Newbies: Reduce and Independent Modifications

posted by

Quote: “with std::reduce() such code, while it compiles at least under MSVC, MAY occasionally provide wrong results”
Another Quote: “if you happen to need something beyond that – take a deep breath and allocate at least several months to understand how does parallelism really work under the hood.”
