## DEDUCING this PATTERNS  BEN DEANE / @ben_deane CPPCON 2021 ## OVERVIEW This presentation is about P0847, "Deducing Gašper Ažman, Sy Brand, Ben Deane, Barry Revzin "We propose a new mechanism for specifying or deducing the value category of the expression that a member-function is invoked on. In other words, a way write) - a closure object (the object the compiler generates by evaluating the lambda expression) ## DEDUCING this AND LAMBDAS First, uniformity of syntax between regular member functions and lambda expressions

Feature complete • C++23 • Deducing this (compiler support) • • std::expected • Many ranges features Coming next for C++23 • Standard library modules • Deducing this (modules support) std::print • Ranges: • to • zip and enumerate • cartesian product ## Coming next for C++23 • Deducing this (modules support) • 9 remaining C++ STL features ## Announcing In Visual Studio 2022 version

be avoided by delegating to helper methods → Cumbersome ☐ C++23: ☐ Explicit object parameters → deducing this ☐ Replace all 3 overloads with: template auto&& GetName(this in a lambda accesses the object that contains the lambda, not the lambda instance itself! ☐ With deducing this: auto fibonacci = [](this auto self, int n) { if (n < 2) { return n; } return self(n

with the same key always produces a unique cipher text. The idea is to prevent the attacker from deducing information from repeated patterns in the encrypted data. From the provided alternatives, the default
