  2. Mutator method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mutator_method

    In computer science, a mutator method is a method used to control changes to a variable. They are also widely known as setter methods. Often a setter is accompanied by a getter, which returns the value of the private member variable.

  3. Lazy initialization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lazy_initialization

    In computer programming, lazy initialization is the tactic of delaying the creation of an object, the calculation of a value, or some other expensive process until the first time it is needed.

  4. Thread safety - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thread_safety

    But if the function is used in a reentrant interrupt handler and a second interrupt arises while the mutex is locked, the second routine will hang forever. As interrupt servicing can disable other interrupts, the whole system could suffer. The same function can be implemented to be both thread-safe and reentrant using the lock-free atomics in ...

  5. Decorator pattern - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decorator_pattern

    In object-oriented programming, the decorator pattern is a design pattern that allows behavior to be added to an individual object, dynamically, without affecting the behavior of other instances of the same class. [1]

  6. Placement syntax - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Placement_syntax

    In the C++ programming language, placement syntax allows programmers to explicitly specify the memory management of individual objects — i.e. their "placement" in memory. Normally, when an object is created dynamically, an allocation function is invoked in such a way that it will both allocate memory for the object, and initialize the object ...

  7. Property (programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Property_(programming)

    A property, in some object-oriented programming languages, is a special sort of class member, intermediate in functionality between a field (or data member) and a method.The syntax for reading and writing of properties is like for fields, but property reads and writes are (usually) translated to 'getter' and 'setter' method calls.

  8. Method (computer programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Method_(computer_programming)

    For example, in C++ a method is known as a member function. C++ also has the concept of virtual functions which are member functions that can be overridden in derived classes and allow for dynamic dispatch .

  9. C dynamic memory allocation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C_dynamic_memory_allocation

    The C programming language manages memory statically, automatically, or dynamically.Static-duration variables are allocated in main memory, usually along with the executable code of the program, and persist for the lifetime of the program; automatic-duration variables are allocated on the stack and come and go as functions are called and return.
