... By my knowledge there is no overall way to do this. If you look at the headers of cross platform/multiple compiler supporting libraries you'll always find a lot of defines that use compiler specific constructs to determine such things: /*Define Microsoft V...

...olution below that applies Object.assign(..) recursively that can automatically resolve properties (with a bit of information provided in advance) – vir us Dec 8 '17 at 16:13 ...

...rt interfaces (the "mature approach") instead of C++ classes (this is basically what COM does, but without the burden of COM infrastructure). I'd use an interface if I want to define a set of rules using which a component can be programmed, without specifying a concrete particular behavior. Classes...

...other framework languages? For example since C# is case-sensitive you can call a field "foo" and the public property "Foo" and it works fine. ...

...ain can become nested, and it quickly becomes unwieldy to wire them up manually. Even with factories, the duplication of your code is just not worth it. IoC containers can be complex, yes. But for this simple case I've shown it's incredibly easy. Okay, let's justify this even more. Let's say ...

... This problem calls for a z-score or standard score, which will take into account the historical average, as other people have mention, but also the standard deviation of this historical data, making it more robust than just using the avera...

... __stdcall is the calling convention used for the function. This tells the compiler the rules that apply for setting up the stack, pushing arguments and getting a return value. There are a number of other calling conventions, __cd...

...pe To "effect a change" on a string represented as a C# String, you actually create a new String object. The original String is not changed ... because it is unchangeable. In most cases it is better to use String because it is easier reason about them; e.g. you don't need to consider the possib...

...lignment the view is moved to the top. For horizontal alignment this is usually the left-hand side. (But note, that on devices with right-to-left language setting this is the other way around, i.e. right aligned.) Center: The view is centered. End: Usually the view is bottom or right aligned. (On ri...

...rate the data about each field(plus the field itself). This macro will be called like this: REFLECTABLE ( (const char *) name, (int) age ) So using Boost.PP we iterate over each argument and generate the data like this: // A helper metafunction for adding const to a type template<clas...
