boost-users@lists.boost.org spake the secret code
Hi, I'm going to be teaching a four hours workshop about getting started with Boost, and I'm wondering which libraries would be the most representative and interesting to show.
I would strongly recommend you cover Boost.Test. You could lead them through the Prime Factors Kata as I do in this series of posts: http://legalizeadulthood.wordpress.com/2009/07/04/c-unit-tests-with-boost-te... http://legalizeadulthood.wordpress.com/2009/07/05/c-unit-tests-with-boost-te... http://legalizeadulthood.wordpress.com/2009/07/05/c-unit-tests-with-boost-te... For whatever reason, C++ code is often the code base most lacking in unit tests. I think its really important to make sure that C++ programmers know how to write basic unit tests. -- "The Direct3D Graphics Pipeline" -- DirectX 9 draft available for download http://legalizeadulthood.wordpress.com/the-direct3d-graphics-pipeline/ Legalize Adulthood! http://legalizeadulthood.wordpress.com
