API Design for C++ Martin Ry
Publisher: Morgan Kaufmann

After reviewing hundreds of actual SaaS APIs, many up to par and others distinctly . There are two possible ways of releasing .. As a result, APIs are not well designed or properly built and wind up costing both the vendor and its customers tens of thousands of dollars in ongoing maintenance due to infrastructure costs and the drain on engineering resources.

A promise that you will support that functionality for the lifetime of the API. €Casablanca is a Microsoft incubation effort to support cloud-based client-server communication in native code using a modern asynchronous C++ API design. "Casablanca is a Microsoft incubation effort to support cloud-based client-server communication in native code using a modern asynchronous C++ API design," explained the DevLabs page. Http://www.apibook.com/blog/archives/95 API Design for C++. Think of it as Node.js, but using C++. Every public element in your API is a promise. The task of designing a web service or API that adheres to the REST guidelines then becomes an exercise in identifying the resources that will be exposed and how they will be affected by the different request methods. Our eventual goal is to get to a point where the API is ready for proposal to the C++ committee as a reference implementation. After publishing The Web API Checklist, I received comments (#1, #2) regarding API versioning. Don't Overpromise (from the book API Design for C++). In this post we look at the details of the design document which outlines this new API. We are proposing to design a new API that makes no attempt at compatibility, but will hopefully be extensible enough to last for a long time, and at the same time tidy up rough edges in the code. I thought I might mention the book: API Design for C++ (Morgan Kaufmann, 2011) by Martin Reddy and the accompanying website [1] and blog [2], in particular the articles on API design [3]. Before you struggle with how to version your API, I want you to know how to design your API to avoid future incompatibilities.
