CppCon 2018

This talk will focus on C++ function templates and such allied topics as compiler-synthesized function template declarations/signatures, overload resolution and partial ordering of these declarations, and compiler instantiation of function template definitions.

We’ll also look at function template specialization, explaining why to avoid explicit ones, and recommending what to do instead.

Finally, time permitting, we’ll offer advice for customizing function templates in the standard library, especially in light of recent WG21 developments re customization points.
