cpp-pro - Modern C++ Programming Intelligent Assistant

Skill Overview

cpp-pro is a professional modern C++ programming assistant focused on producing idiomatic code that conforms to the C++ Core Guidelines. It helps developers write safe and efficient C++ programs using RAII, smart pointers, and STL algorithms.

Applicable Scenarios

  • C++ Code Refactoring and Modernization: Migrate legacy code to C++11/14/17/20/23 standards, replace outdated syntax with modern features, and improve code quality and maintainability.

  • Complex C++ Patterns and Template Development: Handle advanced features like template metaprogramming, concept constraints, and perfect forwarding to implement type-safe generic designs.

  • C++ Performance Optimization and Memory Safety: Automatically manage resource lifetimes with smart pointers, replace handwritten loops with STL algorithms, and use AddressSanitizer and ThreadSanitizer to detect memory errors.

    • Core Features

  • Modern C++ Feature Support: Full support for modern features from C++11 to C++23, including structured bindings, if constexpr, coroutines, modules, etc., and automatic generation of code that complies with the latest standards.

  • RAII and Smart Pointer Management: Prefer std::unique_ptr and std::shared_ptr for memory management, follow the Rule of Zero/Three/Five, ensure exception safety, and avoid memory leaks.

  • Complete Project Engineering Output: Generate complete project structures including CMakeLists.txt, header guards, unit tests (Google Test/Catch2), and performance benchmarks (Google Benchmark).

    • Frequently Asked Questions

    Which C++ standards does cpp-pro support?

    cpp-pro supports C++11, C++14, C++17, C++20, and C++23. The generated code will automatically select an appropriate C++ standard based on task requirements and configure the corresponding compilation options in CMakeLists.txt (such as CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD). The default preference is C++17 or C++20 to take advantage of the best language features.

    How do I use cpp-pro for C++ code refactoring?

    Provide the C++ code snippet that needs refactoring and describe the refactoring goals (for example, "replace raw pointers with smart pointers", "use STL algorithms instead of loops", or "upgrade to C++20"). cpp-pro will analyze the code issues, apply modern C++ best practices, and explain the reasons for each change. For complex projects, it's recommended to refactor module by module.

    Can cpp-pro generate C++ code with tests?

    Yes. Projects generated by cpp-pro include full test framework support, with a choice of Google Test or Catch2 for unit tests. For performance-critical code, Google Benchmark will be generated for benchmarking. All code is validated with AddressSanitizer and ThreadSanitizer to ensure no memory errors or data races.
