| # STLport Project : Overview STLport is an open-source, volunteer-driven project. Its goal is to build complete, multiplatform ANSI C++ Standard library with SGI STL code base. From this base, it inherits the following advantages: Advanced technology for maximum efficiency Exception safety and thread safety Standard compliance and reliability Important extensions - hash tables, singly-linked list, rope Learn more about STLport story. ## STLport Distinction STLport ports SGI STL to any platform possible and provides all necessary wrap-ups, like DLL builds, to be a seamless drop-in for modern production environments. Besides that, it offers important functionality not provided by any other vendor: Debug mode: "Safe iterators" with rigorous validity checking for all containers. Also, checking of preconditions for algorithms and container methods. Flexibility for use in exotic environments, such as vxWorks or Windows CE. ## When Portability Matters With STLport, you rely on uniform tested code base for all compilers used in the project. That makes STLport to be the ultimate choice for multiplatform development. Here is the list of compilers supported by STLport. ## Free and Unrestricted Copyright © 1999,2000 Boris Fomitchev This material is provided "as is", with absolutely no warranty expressed or implied.
