C++ Linkers and the C++ One Definition Rule - Roger Orr - ACCU 2024
---
Most C++ programmers use a linker to create the binaries they create, but to many this process is a black box.
In this presentation I'll unpack some of the functionality of the linker, and how it relates to the C++ source code that you start with.
I'll also be looking at the C++ One Definition Rule (ODR) and explaining the reasons behind some of the consequences of breaking it.
The purpose of this talk is to improve your understanding of the linking and loading process for C++ programs, focusing on Windows and Linux, so you will hopefully be better able to work with, rather than fight against, the linking process.
Some basic knowledge of writing and executing a C++ program will be assumed.

The ACCU Conference is the annual conference of the ACCU membership, but is open to any and all who wish to attend. The tagline for the ACCU is 'Professionalism in Programming', which captures the whole spectrum of programming languages, tools, techniques and processes involved in advancing our craft. While there remains a core of C and C++ - with many members participating in respective ISO standards bodies - the conference, like the organisation, embraces other language ecosystems and you should expect to see sessions on C#, D, F#, Go, Javascript, Haskell, Java, Kotlin, Lisp, Python, Ruby, Rust, Swift and more.The ACCU Conference is a conference by programmers for programmers about programming.
Discounted rates for members.
