Loki is the name of a C++ software library written by Andrei Alexandrescu as part of his book Modern C++ Design. The library makes extensive use of C++ template metaprogramming and implements several commonly used tools: typelist, functor, singleton, smart pointer, object factory, visitor and multimethods. Originally the library was only compatible with two of the most standard conforming C++ compilers: later efforts have made it usable with a wide array of compilers.

  • Loki is the name of a C++ software library written by Andrei Alexandrescu as part of his book Modern C++ Design. The library makes extensive use of C++ template metaprogramming and implements several commonly used tools: typelist, functor, singleton, smart pointer, object factory, visitor and multimethods. Originally the library was only compatible with two of the most standard conforming C++ compilers: later efforts have made it usable with a wide array of compilers. Compiler vendors used Loki as a compatibility benchmark, further increasing the number of compliant compilers. Maintenance and further development of Loki has been continued through an open-source community led by Peter Kümmel and Richard Sposato as a Sourceforge project. Ongoing contributions by many people have improved the overall robustness and functionality of the library. Loki is not tied to the book anymore as it already has a lot of new components (e.g. - StrongPtr, Printf, and Scopeguard). Loki inspired similar tools and functionality now also present in the Boost library collection.
