Adapted SGI STL implementation ( for gcc, SUN CC, Borland,
Microsoft, IBM xlC, DEC CXX, ... compilers ) updated at:

http://www.ipmce.su/~fbp/stl/

What's new:

 * algo.h : all iterator post-increments changed to
   pre-increment equivalents to get more efficiency.

 * EH documentation completed. Dave Abrahams <abrahams@motu.com>

      parser, some math operations resources
          ( by Graziano Lo Russo <Graziano.LoRusso@CSELT.IT>)

 * hashtable.h "Julian C. Cummings" <julianc@acl.lanl.gov>
   xlC portability fixes

Adapted SGI STL implementation ( for gcc, SUN, Borland,
Microsoft,... compilers ) updated at:

http://www.ipmce.su/~fbp/stl/

What's new:

 * Merged exception-handling code contributed by
   Dave Abrahams <abrahams@motu.com>. The version
   guarantees no resources are leaked by the
   library. That is the major change which required
          some nontrivial modifications of SGI code.
          Side-effect results are:
     * temporary buffer handling reworked : __stl_tempbuf
        class introduced to allow for clean approach to
        temporary buffer cleanup.

     * tree.h - most of rb_tree methods moved to
       __rb_tree_base<Value,Alloc> to reduce code bloat.

 * Propagated regular SGI STL version update :
    bugfixes, improvements, VC++-5.0 portability.

 * SGI HTML documenation provided in a single tar file.
          Links adjusted to be used in local environment.
          A copy of December WP mirrored.
          Adaptation documenation updated.

 * Guarding #ifdefs for headers made uniform :
   __SGI_STL_XXX_H . All #includes guarded at the point of
   inclusion to reduce compilation time.

 * Added DEC cxx portability/configure diagnostics.
          Now it works.

 * stlconf.h - final fixes for xlC made (omitted in previous
          release).

 * function.h : Provided pointer-to-member adaptors.

 * functionx.h : extension file introduced.
   void_function extensions added.
          Constant versions for pointer-to-member adaptors
   provided for some compilers that need it.

 * Testsuite updated : error1 test removed,
   added hash containers tests.

 * "configure" bugs fixed. Many more feature tests introduced.
           Configuration switches documented.

 * "STL-Compliant Collection" chapter updated:
   auto_ptr.h : auto_ptr implementation provided;
   ternary_function.h : updated to be portable. Pointer-to-member
   mem_fun2 extensions added.

 * bit_vector iterators moved to global scope to fix
   SunPro CC link problems in complex cases.

 * algo.h : fix for gcc cross-compiling

 * alloc.h - fixed _SGI_THREADS case for gcc.

What's new:

 * An interview with Alexander Stepanov for Edizioni Infomedia srl
          published ( see "Readings on Generic Programming" chapter ).

 * Fixed hash containers extra typedefs.

 * alloc.h - added xlC workarounds

 * Completed xlC workarounds for containers.
   xlC now works OK.

Adapted SGI STL implementation ( for gcc, SUN, Borland,
Microsoft,... compilers ) updated at:

http://www.ipmce.su/people/fbp/stl/stlport.html

What's new:

 * Functional adaptors reworked to compile under SUN
   C++ 4.0.1 ( solution proposed by
   "Martin Abernethy" <gma@paston.co.uk> ).
   Now C++ 4.0.1 compiles the whole STL, including
          hash containers.

 * hash containers workaround problems fixed.

 * Added "self" typedefs workaround for compilers
   requiring explicit template syntax (xlC)
  ( reported by mbrincho@msi.com )
   xlC now should work - added recognition.

 * "configure" test set extended to recognize SUN C++ 4.1
   & AIX xlC specific (?) bugs.

          Fixed recognition section bug for VC++ 4.1.

   SGI recognition improved.

   Added test & workaround for pair() problem with
   gcc & VC++

   Added --enable-abbrevs configure option that
   forces use of abbreviated class names for
   linkers that have problems with too long symbols.

 * portable basic_string implementation provided in
   "collection" section.
   Added a link to "Java Algorithm Library" page
          ( by Mattew Austern & Alexander Stepanov ).

Microsoft, etc. compilers ) updated at:

http://www.ipmce.su/people/fbp/stl/stlport.html

What's new:

* "configure" autoconfiguration script introduced to tune the
definitions.

* testsuite with single/multiple targets made available.
  Makefiles for SUN CC, g++, Borland, Visual C++ ready.

* Additional STL-compliant components provided.

* new-style headers <algorithm>, etc. added for more
  portability.

* defalloc.h fixed to have uniform interface with other
  allocators.

* Extended support for compilers supporting only complete types
  as default template arguments.
  Now they don't have to use workaround versions for all
  containers, istream_iterator, etc ( Borland, gcc-2.7.2 (big surprise!)
).

* added explicit/typename keywords for appropriate
  compilers.

* Added support/recognition for SUN C++ 4.0.1.
  Functional adaptors still don't work.

* added recognition/support for Cygnus gcc clones.

* Some typedefs re-arranged to get more portability.

* Fixed minor namespaces bugs. Operators ==, < made all
one-template-param.

* Documentation updated.
