Inside the C++ Object Model focuses on the underlying mechanismsthat support object-oriented programming within C++: constructorsemantics, temporary generation, support for encapsulation,inheritance, and “the virtuals”-virtual functions and virtualinheritance. This book shows how your understanding the underlyingimplementation models can help you code more efficiently and withgreater confidence. Lippman dispells the misinformation and myths aboutthe overhead and complexity associated with C++, while pointing outareas in which costs and trade offs, sometimes hidden, do exist. Hethen explains how the various implementation models arose, points outareas in which they are likely to evolve, and why they are what theyare. He covers the semantic implications of the C++ object model andhow that model affects your programs.
Highlights
Explores the program behavior implicit in the C++ Object Model’s support of object-oriented programming.
Explains the basic implementation of the object-oriented features and the trade offs implicit in those features.
Examines the impact on performance in terms of program transformation.
Provides abundant program examples, diagrams, and performancemeasurements to relate object-oriented concepts to the underlyingobject model.
If you are a C++ programmer who desires a fuller understanding ofwhat is going on “under the hood,” then Inside the C++ Object Model isfor you!
