Have you looked at PowerCollections project. It provides a bunch of containers similar to STL's offerings and a separate algorithms class which provides the functionality of STL's algorithms. It is a bit old though, so I am not sure whether it will ever support LINQ.

Yes I did. At the time when I have started the NSTL, they had a couple of good containers, but very limited Algorithms support. That's why I went on. This has changed!. The latest version includes a lot of algorithms and containers. As they are close to the .NET design guidelines an are a well known and widespread project, they are definetly worth a consideration. The NSTL interacts very nice with them through the collection interfaces.

I'm usually not using C++/CLI, but I just came up withe the following simple example that compiles and works:

using namespace System;
using namespace System::Collections::Generic;
 
using namespace NStl;
using namespace NStl::Collections;
 
int main(array<String ^> ^args)
{
	Map<int, double>^ m = gcnew Map<int, double>(Functional::Less<int>());
 
	m->Insert(1, 1.0);
	m->Insert(2, 1.0);
 
 
	Algorithm::Copy(m->Begin(), m->End(), NStlUtil::ConsoleOutput<KeyValuePair<int, double> >(Environment::NewLine));
 
 
	Console::WriteLine(String::Empty);
        return 0;
}

This compiles, but when closing the application, I get errors.

What kind of errors? As mentioned, my (first) C++/CLI example works fine. Can you provide a small but complete sample?

HTH,
Andy

Can you give me an example on how to use the map ?

I keep getting errors in the constructor. Remark: I use C++;

I do the following:

Map<int,double> lovMyVector;

or

Map<int,double> lovMyVector = gcnew Map<int,double>();

I get an error that there is no default constructor, which is correct, but what do I have to fill in then as parameter.
I saw the help, so I tried the following:

Map<int,double> lovMyVector(Functional::Less<int>);

Also this gives me errors, so I tried the following:

Map<int,double> lovMyVector(Functional::Less<int>());

This compiles, but when closing the application, I get errors.

So, what is the good way to specify a map ?

I don't have problems with Vector and DList which I also tested.

regards and thanks for this very nice portal from standard STL to NSTL.
Bart

Hi Andy, Thanks for your valuable comments. I will go through the source code and let you know in case I have any issues. mecspek

Hi mecspek, I've just updated the projects "Home" section with a (very) short overview of the project. Basically the project has started as a port of the SGI C++ STL implementation to .NET. The first (non public) release on .NET 1.1 was in early 2004. The current release is completely ported to C# 2.0 using the new generic features. The library consists of an almost complete implementation of the STL algorithms, functors and binders and is in active use in several large commercial projects I work on. The next couple minor releases will consist of new containers, some more algorithms that are not part of Standard C++, but are available in different STL implementations. The next major release is targeted for C# 3.0 and will offer the STLs algorithms as LINQ query operator. I hope this short overview helps you a bit. If not, just let me know what you are interested in specifically. Cheers, Andy

Hi, Can you please outline what this project all about. I am a newbie to CodePlex and so please excuse if this is not the way to approach. Thanks in advance, mecspek
