Advanced C++ Software Design Training in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

The Advanced C++ Software Design Training focuses on designing robust, scalable, and maintainable C++ applications using modern C++ standards and proven software design principles. The course emphasizes architecture, design patterns, SOLID principles, dependency management, and testable design, rather than just language syntax.

Modern C++ Design Philosophy

Object Lifetime & Ownership Design

• Ownership models and boundaries

• RAII as a design tool

• Smart pointer design strategies

• Value semantics vs reference semantics

• Avoiding shared ownership pitfalls

API & Library Design in C++

• Designing clean and stable interfaces
