Developing With Compile Time In Mind Richard Cattermole by Richard Cattermole instant download after payment.

Developing software is an amazing process that can take many different forms. In the case of this book we look towards a little known and used concept. Compile Time Function Execution or Evaluation for those inclined, is the ability to execute code during the compilation phase of a program. This opens up many different avenues for automation of code generation. But it is a double edged sward. The time it takes during compilation is heavily dependent upon what the compiler must do.
When reading this book, have in mind that very few languages actually support CTFE currently. Those that do generally do not support it to the extent that is expected for this book. Because of this and the experience with the D programming language. It has been chosen by the author to use D as the base language refered to within the book.
