I am starting in a new job on Monday, in which the primary programming language is C++. For the past four years I've had the privilege of being able to use D both professionally and privately, and consequently my C++ skills (which were intermediate to begin with) are now a bit rusty.
Since I know there are a lot of extremely talented C++ programmers in the D community, I thought I'd ask here for some tips. Firstly, can you think of any pitfalls to avoid? In particular, I am interested in the ones that stem from subtle differences between the two programming languages. I believe I am already aware of the most obvious stuff (such as for example array bounds checking, or lack thereof). Secondly, can you recommend a good C++ book? I am looking for one that targets an audience with good general programming skills, and which can act as a language reference. Hopefully, my adventures in the world of C++ will give me new perspectives on things, allowing me to contribute even better to the improvement of D. ;) -Lars
