C++ Standard Library

By andre

The abundance C++ standard library implementations is quite surprising. You have at least the following:

  • Apache’s STDCXX (former RougeWave)
  • STLPort -I used it myself in a couple of projects, and it is bundled with Borland C++ Builder
  • SGI - well, this is mainly STL
  • GCC’s implementation
  • Dinkumware - used in Microsoft’s Visual C++
  • …and more

It is really astonishing - imagine all those people sitting and coding the standard library time after time, for years. You must be very devoted C++ programmer in order to participate in such a project.
