01 | {Getting Started} Kate Gregory | Gregory Consulting James Mc. Nellis | Senior Engineer, Visual C++
Module Overview • Development Environment • How to write, build, and run code • Quick History of C++ • Variables and Types
Lesson 1 – Development Environment • Development Environment
Development Environment • Visual Studio Express 2013 for Windows Desktop – It’s free and it’s all you need to follow along • Not using Windows? – C++ works on other platforms too – http: //isocpp. org/get-started has links to compilers • Our sample code is available – LINK TBA
DEMO Hello, World!
Lesson 2: How to Write, Build and Run Code • How code is built • Structure of a C++ program • Debugging
The Compilation Process Preprocessor Compiler Linker • Takes your C++ source code and evaluates preprocessor directives. • Produces a preprocessed source file (but usually is just part of compiler). • Takes preprocessed source code, compiles into object files. • Checks that your code conforms to all syntax and semantic rules (e. g. , no type errors). • Accepts promises from the code about things defined in other source files. • Takes object files, links them into an executable program. • Ensures that all of the promises to the compiler are kept.
Structure of a C++ program #include <iostream> int main() { Use a library Special function name that the OS calls to run your program std: : cout << "Hello, World!" << std: : endl; return 0; } std: : cout represents console output << means send the next thing to it
DEMO Building
Debugging • Normally a console application – Starts – Executes the code in main() – Might print to the console (or read from the keyboard) – Terminates (quits) • Under a debugger, you can pause execution – Inspect values – Watch execution proceed – Slower, but vital to understanding
DEMO Debugging
Lesson 3: Quick History of C++ • Born in 1979 as C with Classes – Retains backward compatibility with C • Named C++ in 1983 • Ratified as ISO standard in 1998 • Continues to change under stewardship of a standards committee
Lesson 1: Types • C++ is strongly typed • Fundamental types • Casting (changing type)
DEMO Types
Fundamental Types • Types you use a lot: – int, unsigned int – double – bool • Types you may see – char, unsigned char – long, unsigned long – short, unsigned short – float • http: //msdn. microsoft. com/en-us/library/cc 953 fe 1. aspx
Casting • Instead of writing code that relies on the compiler to convert one type to another, you can ask for it explicitly • i = static_cast<int>(3. 2); • Makes a good “signpost” for others who read your code • Takes away compiler warnings – Always try to build warning free
