This final speaker preview focuses on the 'Modernizing C++' theme, spotlighting Victor Ciura's session 'Mind The Gap: C++/Rust Interop'. Victor, technical lead of the Rust program at Microsoft with 25 years of C++ systems programming experience, will cover the real challenges of hybrid C++/Rust codebases: ABI compatibility, FFI, toolchain guarantees, and glue-code generators. The session addresses why general-purpose interop without performance loss remains unsolved and maps the frontier of where C++/Rust interoperability is heading. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it. Read it at the original source: ## Questions this post answers ### What are the main challenges in making C++ and Rust interoperate in a hybrid codebase? The core challenges are ABI compatibility, platform and toolchain guarantees, dropping down to C for FFI, and relying on tools that generate glue code between the two languages. General-purpose interop without losing performance has not been fully solved, so teams must weigh tradeoffs between performance and ergonomics rather than expect a seamless, complete solution. _daily.dev surfaces deep dives like this for teams navigating mixed C++/Rust codebases and interop tradeoffs._ ### When is Pure Virtual C++ 2026 and how can I attend? Pure Virtual C++ 2026 streams live on Tuesday, July 21, 2026 at 9:00 AM PT as a free, one-day virtual conference, broadcast on YouTube via Microsoft Reactor and on Twitch, with recordings later posted to the Visual Studio YouTube channel. Registration is free and open to the whole C++ community. _Developers tracking C++ conference lineups can follow updates like this one on daily.dev._ ## Similar posts on daily.dev - [Pure Virtual C\+\+ 2026 Talks Announced](https://daily.dev/posts/pure-virtual-c-2026-talks-announced-0s6rzcuae) · DevBlogs · 4 upvotes · 0 comments - [Pure Virtual C\+\+ 2026 Is a Wrap](https://daily.dev/posts/pure-virtual-c-2026-is-a-wrap-8fjkmdezo) · DevBlogs · 0 upvotes · 0 comments - [Pure Virtual C\+\+ 2026 Is Now Live\!](https://daily.dev/posts/pure-virtual-c-2026-is-now-live--iigskyvdv) · DevBlogs · 0 upvotes · 0 comments - [Pure Virtual C\+\+ 2026 \[Meet the Speakers, Part 1\]: Build Faster, Run Faster](https://daily.dev/posts/pure-virtual-c-2026-meet-the-speakers-part-1-build-faster-run-faster-46c7ocid6) · DevBlogs · 0 upvotes · 0 comments - [CppCon 2026: Back to Basics: Move Semantics](https://daily.dev/posts/cppcon-2026-back-to-basics-move-semantics-ei9s83rlh) · C\+\+ · 1 upvotes · 0 comments --- Tags: [#rust](https://daily.dev/tags/rust), [#c++](https://daily.dev/tags/c++) [View this post on daily.dev](https://daily.dev/posts/pure-virtual-c-2026-meet-the-speakers-part-3-modernizing-c--ismgfibyx) ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180},"sameAs":["https://twitter.com/dailydotdev","https://github.com/dailydotdev","https://www.linkedin.com/company/daily-dev-ltd"]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https://daily.dev/#website","url":"https://daily.dev","name":"daily.dev","publisher":{"@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization"},"potentialAction":{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https://daily.dev/search?q={search_term_string}"},"query-input":"required name=search_term_string"}}]} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"TechArticle","headline":"Pure Virtual C++ 2026 [Meet the Speakers, Part 3]: Modernizing C++","url":"https://daily.dev/posts/pure-virtual-c-2026-meet-the-speakers-part-3-modernizing-c--ismgfibyx","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://daily.dev/posts/pure-virtual-c-2026-meet-the-speakers-part-3-modernizing-c--ismgfibyx"},"datePublished":"2026-07-22T17:29:37.854Z","dateModified":"2026-09-14T06:38:13.732Z","description":"Pure Virtual C++ 2026 is a free one-day virtual conference streaming July 21, 2026.
