Explore a lock-free implementation of std::future/promise without allocation in this interactive CppNow conference talk. Dive deep into the challenge of creating a shared state for futures and promises without separate memory allocation, even when components can move or be destroyed. Follow along as the speaker sketches out a careful design using lock-free techniques, inviting audience participation to identify potential issues at each step. Gain practical insights into applying lock-free programming concepts in a real-world scenario, and develop a deeper understanding of memory management and concurrency in C++.
