A couple of days ago, I blogged that
my article on "Universal References" had been published by Overload, and I said a video of me presenting this topic at
C++ and Beyond would soon be available. Soon has become now. Servers are standing by, and
on-demand viewing is available at
Channel 9. Many thanks to Charles Torre and to Microsoft for recording and hosting the presentation. I hope you like it and find it useful. If you do, please tell others about it, because I'm trying to inject the term
universal reference into the C++ vocabulary, and I can't do it alone.

Great talk! Thanks for sharing it.
ReplyDeleteSo, what was the verdict on universal references and using (as an alternative to typedef), as discussed towards the end?
@Anders Sjögren: It seems that reference-collapsing does not occur in "using" typedefs. Section 8.3.2/6 of the standard (which is where reference-collapsing is specified) mentions only typedefs, template parameters, and decltype. auto is in the club, because its specification refers to the spec for template parameters.
