[Broken External Image]:http://ecn.channel9.msdn.com/o9/ch9/2/2/3/1/6/5/C9LecturesSTLLavavejP2_85_ch9.pngWelcome to another installment of C9 Lectures*covering the powerful general C++ library, STL. The great Stephan T. Lavavej, Microsofts keeper of the STL cloth (this means he manages the partnership with the owners of STL (dinkumware)*and Microsoft, including, of course, bug fixes and enhancements to the STL that ships as part of Visual C++). Simply, Stephan is a C++ library developer.
As is Stephans nature, he elaborates on technical details*in very substantive way. The Standard Template Library, or STL, is a C++ library of container classes, algorithms, and iterators. STL provides many fundamental algorithms and data structures. The STL is a general purpose library: its components are heavily parameterized such that almost every component in the STL is a template.
This is not an introductory series on C++. As such, it is expected that viewers already possess a working knowledge of the C++ language. Go ahead and open VC++ IDE and follow along--there are many examples provided on-screen and Stephan will monitor this thread and answer questions.
Enjoy. Learn.
Books mentioned by Stephen:
The C++ Standard Library: A Tutorial And Reference by Nicolai M. Josuttis
Effective STL by Scott Meyers
