With the C++ Standard Template Library (STL), C++ developers have a powerful toolset for maximizing productivity, software quality, and performance at the same time. STL provides both a comprehensive set of container classes and fundamental algorithms to go with them -- a large, systematic, clean, formally sound, comprehensible, elegant and efficient framework for C++ development. Now, in this long-awaited book, the creators of the C++ Standard Template Library explain it authoritatively and in depth.KEY TOPICS:Each chapter of The Standard Template Library covers one STL component, including background, a review of the standard, techniques for using and implementing the component, and hands-on exercises. Appendices present lists of reserved names, a detailed glossary of terms and references, and practical techniques for interfacing the STL with several leading C++ compilers.MARKET:For every experienced C++ programmer.
