What it really : is is a set of requirements that containers, iterators, and algorithms : must satisfy if they are to work together, and a fairly large but : deliberately incomplete set of predefined containers, iterators, and : algorithms. : In other words: if you define iterators that point into data files : (depending on your design, and on your OS's file I/O capabilities, you : might choose to use input iterators, forward iterators, or even random : access iterators), then you can use all of the STL algorithms that : make sense for iterators of that category. OK, I wrote some useful(IMHO) iterators family. I would like to share it with others STL explorers/users. STL FAQ seems to keep silence about this question. Where can I upload my codes related to STL? Recently I saw message from Meng Lee that STL is not longer supported by authors. Thanks them very much for such really great thing as STL. Others could continue. The positive part of my message could be let's somebody (not me, sorry) establish some kind of network rescource as STL-related code repository. Maillist would be useful too. In the case such place(s) or something similar already exists please post coords. And this case it should be reflected in STL FAQ. Andy. [ comp.std.c++ is moderated.
