C++ Training in Varna

This instructor-led, live training in Varna (online or onsite) is aimed at developers who wish to use advanced C++ programming techniques to develop complex, secure, and high-performance systems and applications.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

• Set up a development environment that includes all C++ libraries, packages and frameworks.
• Understand the features, components, and basic elements of C++.
• Create complex C++ applications using advanced programming techniques.
• Learn how to write readable, fast, and secure code in C++.
• Know the common security pitfalls in C++ language and how to mitigate them.
• Implement test strategies for code quality and security control.
• Use the diagnostics and debugging tools in C++ development.

This C++ course explores essential modern programming concepts, such as templates, move semantics, and first-class functions.

It places a strong focus on memory management through smart pointers and secure coding techniques.

Participants will study runtime errors, operator overloading, polymorphism, and STL containers paired with algorithms.
The curriculum wraps up with an introduction to effective testing strategies in C++.

Developing secure C and C++ code demands rigorous defenses against malicious exploitation, memory corruption, and input validation bypasses. This course explores vulnerability patterns such as buffer overflows, use-after-free errors, integer overflows, and type confusion. Participants will apply secure coding guidelines, static analysis tools, and defensive programming techniques to eliminate weaknesses, enforce input sanitization, and deliver hardened software resilient against cyberattacks.

Is C++ appropriate for embedded systems such as microcontrollers and real-time operating systems?

Should object-oriented programming be employed within microcontrollers?

Is C++ too abstracted from the hardware to ensure efficiency?

This instructor-led, live training addresses these questions and demonstrates through discussion and practice how C++ can be utilized to develop embedded systems with code that is accurate, readable, and efficient. Participants put theory into practice through the creation of a sample embedded application in C++.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

• Understand the principles of object-oriented modelling, embedded software programming and real-time programming
• Produce code for embedded systems that is small, fast and safe
• Avoid code bloat from templates, exceptions, and other language features
• Understand the issues related to using C++ in safety-critical and real-time systems
• Debug a C++ program on a target device

Audience

• Developers
• Designers

Format of the course

• Part lecture, part discussion, exercises and heavy hands-on practice

Designed for C++ developers seeking to integrate the C++11 standard into their professional work, this two-day course is especially beneficial for those working on financial applications. The curriculum covers all new features, accompanied by practical coding examples that participants can execute in the lab environment.

This training program aims to present C++ as the natural evolution of C for object-oriented embedded system development. Since C++ is fully compatible with C, this course guides participants smoothly from C to C++ while exploring the underlying mechanisms of how C++ is executed. This insight is particularly valuable when applying C++ in resource-constrained embedded environments. With the C++ standard recently undergoing a significant revision known as C++11, and a subsequent update, C++14, approaching, this course covers key features introduced by these updates that are highly beneficial in embedded contexts, such as high-performance memory management, concurrency using multicore processors, and low-level hardware programming.

GOAL/BENEFITS

The primary objective of this course is to enable you to use C++ in a 'correct' and effective manner.

• Introduce C++ as an object-oriented alternative within the embedded systems domain.
• Highlight both the similarities and differences between C++ and C.
• Understand various memory management techniques, with a specific focus on move semantics introduced in C++11.
• Explore the underlying implementation to understand how different C++ paradigms translate into machine code.
• Leverage templates to create type-safe, high-level abstractions for low-level hardware programming (including memory-mapped I/O and interrupts), particularly utilizing variadic templates introduced in C++11.
• Present useful design patterns applicable to embedded systems.
• Include practical exercises to reinforce learning.

AUDIENCE/PARTICIPANTS

This training is designed for C++ programmers who wish to begin using C++ in an embedded systems context.

PREVIOUS KNOWLEDGE

The course assumes basic proficiency in C++ programming, equivalent to our 'C++ – Level 1' and 'C++ Level 2 – Introducing C++11' trainings.

PRACTICAL EXERCISES

Throughout the training, you will practice the presented concepts through a series of exercises. The development will take place using the free and open-source integrated development environment provided by Eclipse.

This instructor-led, live training in Varna (online or onsite) targets developers who wish to utilize C++ to apply object-oriented programming techniques and enhance software design.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to implement object-oriented concepts in C++, design modular applications, apply encapsulation and abstraction, and structure maintainable codebases.

This live, instructor-led training delivered in Varna provides a detailed examination of Qt and its modules.

By the conclusion of this training, attendees will have acquired the necessary understanding and practical experience to develop C++ applications using Qt.
