JavaScriptCore is a built-in iOS library that enables you to use JavaScript in apps alongside Objective-C and Swift. It lets developers read JavaScript from a string, execute it from Objective-C or Swift, and share data structures and functions across languages. We JavaScriptCore to share code between Web and iOS.

In this article we compared different behavior of static
, inline
and static inline
free functions in compiled binary.
All the following test was done under g++ 7.1.1 on Linux amd64, ELF64.
#pragma once
inline int only_inline() { return 42; }
static int only_static() { return 42; }

# This tool checks an input path for all static libraries *.a files | |

For a brief user-level introduction to CMake, watch C++ Weekly, Episode 78, Intro to CMake by Jason Turner. LLVM’s CMake Primer provides a good high-level introduction to the CMake syntax. Go read it now.
After that, watch Mathieu Ropert’s CppCon 2017 talk Using Modern CMake Patterns to Enforce a Good Modular Design (slides). It provides a thorough explanation of what modern CMake is and why it is so much better than “old school” CMake. The modular design ideas in this talk are based on the book [Large-Scale C++ Software Design](https://www.amazon.de/Large-Scale-Soft

What is strict aliasing? First we will describe what is aliasing and then we can learn what being strict about it means.
In C and C++ aliasing has to do with what expression types we are allowed to access stored values through. In both C and C++ the standard specifies which expression types are allowed to alias which types. The compiler and optimizer are allowed to assume we follow the aliasing rules strictly, hence the term strict aliasing rule. If we attempt to access a value using a type not allowed it is classified as undefined behavior(UB). Once we have undefined behavior all bets are off, the results of our program are no longer reliable.
Unfortunately with strict aliasing violations, we will often obtain the results we expect, leaving the possibility the a future version of a compiler with a new optimization will break code we th
