Recommended Books for learning C++

[quote author="Denis Kormalev" date="1291233937"]MarPan, of course you should :) but maybe as subcategory of books (something like subheader "Other languages" and subsubheader "Polish")[/quote]

donno how many languages have books on c++, but even if 10 languages x 10 books, 100 in one page would be too much ... I'd still feel separate pages

or we agree to disagree and let users decide :p

chetankjain, not sure that there will be a lot of national books. I think that most part of books are at english. But different pages make sense (maybe links on english page like ones at main wiki page).

I would prefer a separate page for each language. This could be tagged with "language:XY" and the whole page should be in the target language. Also it can more easily be linked on the probably existing wiki pages for that special language.

Of course, there should be a back link to the english page on each translation (which would be a good idea for all translations, btw).

[quote author="Tobias Hunger" date="1291233408"]I started with "Practical C++ Programming" from O'Reilly. It is not going to deep, but nice to read and does cover the basics.

just added this to the wiki page :)

Denis, chetankjain, Volker: It is a wiki, we can still split up the page if it gets too long. I really do not see the need to have separate pages for the one polish and one russian book mentioned so far!

Let's not start over engineering:-)

Tobias, reasonable enough :) " premature optimization is the root of all evil"

I saw a thread today on maemo org with the same idea:

and some more....

the best book in the world is effective c++.... just read.

I'm currently reading C++ Primer and it's my second C++ book (can't remember the first I sold it years ago). I'm probably getting Effective C++ soon, heard some good things about it.

Has anyone read Introduction to Design Patterns in C++ with Qt4? It's available online at http://cartan.cas.suffolk.edu/oopdocbook/html/
