Väl mött! 🎉

The program in detail:

Hans Wennborg: Windows debug info: CodeView and PDB files
Symbolic debug info on Unix-like systems is relatively well understood.
There's a publicly available specification (DWARF), plenty of
open-source implementations, tutorials and blog posts, as well as tools
for exploring and interacting with the format.
Windows is different. There is no specification, very little
documentation, and the whole thing is more or less shrouded in mystery.
This talk will attempt to explain how debug info works on Windows:
CodeView, PDB files, and how it all fits together.

Jonas Lund: Reflection Walkthrough
A walkthrough of the new C++ 26 reflection feature, from high-level benefits via end-user usage and previous workaround hacks to the standard's final form and some of its grittier details

As always, everyone interested in C++ is welcome. Looking forward to seeing you there!
