In Bjarne Stroustrup's book, The Design and Evolution of C++,
he mentions the "dynarray" class. This is a general dynamic
array template which he says will be part of the ANSI standard
library. (BTW a highly interesting and well written book).

Michael Stal and Uwe Steinmuller have two good articles in the C++
Report discussing the use of their "DynArray" class. I am
assuming this is the same dynarray that was proposed for the
standard because Bjarne references the first article in his book
(October 1993). However, Messrs. Stal and Steinmuller never mention
anything about ANSI X3J16 in their articles.

I know compiler vendors will eventually try to optimize their
implementations of the standard library, but for now, does anyone
know if a sample implementation of the dynarray template is
available by anon FTP, or other electronic means?

BTW, for those interested in the the ANSI/ISO working paper,
the comp.lang.c++ FAQ says they can be ordered from:

I think copies are US$25. This may be outdated information.
