I came across this recommendation for reading the C++ report magazine. However, when I searched for it, i realized it has become defunct.

Can someone please recommend me some other magazine / rss etc which is of the same genre ? I look forward to read more about some of the elusive and other C++ techniques that veterans are using in the field.

I came across Dr. Dobb's journal -> C++ feeds and I think they're pretty good too. Subscribed++

Thanks!

The obvious choices would be C Vu and Overload, both published by the ACCU (formerly known as the Association of C and C++ Users).

Also, even though this isn't a magazine, a great source of C++related material that is updated quite often is Herb Sutter's blog: Sutter's Mill.

Uncle Bob Martin's Object Mentor publications include all his classics from C++ Report.

  • I'd be *very* wary of these, as they pretty much all predate the C++ standardization. This in itself isn't a huge problem, but it means they also predate modern C++ practices (which means it's more about C with Classes than about what we would consider C++ today) – jalf Apr 11 '10 at 21:10
  • Not really. If you read them, you'll see that the concepts are usually generic OO, not outdated C++ syntax. – duffymo Apr 11 '10 at 21:43
  • C++ Report is no longer, and became C Users Journal before becoming Dr. Dobbs Journal Source: http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?CppReport – Damian Nov 21 '13 at 19:04
  • Yes, I know. C++ Report died long ago. That's why I referred to Object Mentor. Citing C++ Report was only for historical context and interest, nothing more. – duffymo Nov 21 '13 at 19:15
