real-time c++ application

[Lun]

when I write a c++ program, it's already with real-time response, not much delay, I just wonder how can I write a c++ real-time program ?

what I can think of is the delay from IO (say file IO, network IO) or blocking function calls. The point is that it's not language related, I mean, any language will have this kind of delay, not c++ specific. It seems that C++ and real-time programming are two separated topics, am I right ? If not, pls explain further.

is there any book teaching real-time programming ?
is there any other revelent resources ?

Thanks

You are correct. Real time programming is seen more often at the device/appliance level like low level microcontroller design and developing. Every body that works at the hardware level is really familiar with this.

I don't know about current books. I haven't dealt with this in a really long time. I remember VxWorks was the granddaddy of RTOS and tools but that might have changed.

real-time is about predictable timing response

Feabhas provides training in real-time C++, it's mainly about understanding the timing performance of C++.
