JSONify All Things Extending the nlohmann/json Library
The nlohmann/json library is everything a developer can expect from a modern library — easy to integrate and JSON objects are treated as first class citizens with a very intuitive API. However, it has one problem that is widely mentioned across the internet, which I’ll tell you about below. Various solutions to the problem have […]
Loose Coupling with Signals & Slots Connecting (Almost) Any Function to a Signal
Here at KDAB, we recently published a library called KDBindings, which aims to reimplement both Qt signals and slots and data binding in pure C++17. To get an introduction to the KDBindings implementation of signals and slots, I recommend that you take a look at the KDBindings Getting Started Guide. It will give you an […]
Fast Duplicate Tracking DuplicateTracker Merged to KDToolBox
In 2019, I optimized QStringList::removeDuplicates() by using std::pmp::unordered_set with a std::pmr::monotonic_buffer_resource, when available. The class that I wrote to encapsulate this optimization has since been re-implemented three times. The latest iteration has recently landed in KDToolBox. If you have code that looks a bit like this: then you should read on.
QStringView Diaries: Zero-Allocation String Splitting QStringTokenizer merged for 6.0
After four months of intensive development work, I am happy to announce that the first QStringTokenizer commits have landed in what will eventually become Qt 6.0. The docs should show up, soon. While the version in Qt will be Qt 6-only, KDAB will release this tool for Qt 5 as part of its KDToolBox productivity […]
