C++ Core Guidelines

To ease C++ maintenance a safe subset of modern C++ has been defined and might be used on our code base

Quoting the introduction :

• This is a set of core guidelines for modern C++, C++14, and taking likely future enhancements and taking ISO Technical Specifications (TSs) into account. The aim is to help C++ programmers to write simpler, more efficient, more maintainable code.

Microsoft implemented a free set of zero-cost template helpers to support the concept of this guidelines. This should be added to the source tree and these templates should be used across all our codebase.
