Below I list a number of new C++11 features that should be interesting for use in the Hall D Online. The most important ones concern programming safety, i.e. they plug safety loopholes in C++ that have been there for ages. The second type concern programming convenience, i.e. they make the code easier to write and understand. Although we do not have any hard-and-fast programming rules for the online, I strongly feel the safety features should be used in all new code. I recommend use of the convenience features, but this is a personal decision. Even if you don't use them you should be familiar with them since they will appear in online code written by others.
Note that I take it for granted the old C++98 features will be used regularly (e.g. the STL).
For a comprehensive discussion of C++11 see the Wikipedia article on C++11. See also the article on Ten C++11 Features Every C++ Developer Should Use.
