Command Line C++ Development

on YouTube ↗01h 06m

" summary

Practical command line workflow and concrete demos showing what gets built and why: compiling a hello world through g++/clang/clang++, inspecting preprocessing (-E) to assembly, producing object files and resolving missing symbols with the ld linker and -lfmt example, and assembling a small library plus header to reproduce linker errors. CMake usage demonstrates generating a build system and out of source builds CMake -> build dir. Also shows SSH and lightweight terminals as low cost energy efficient ways to run these tools.
