Does Visual C++ .NET 2005 have STL?

[Peter Olcott]

Is there a .NET version of the standard Temple Library in Visual Studio .NET
2005?
What is the 2005 updated equivalent of a std::vector in C# ?

I believe this quote addresses your question:

<quote>
STL/CLR (STL .NET) is not supported in Beta 2. We are planning to
release the beta version of STL/CLR at the time of VS 2005 final release,
and the final release of STL/CLR via the web in 2006.

In answer to your question, in C# you can use runtime generics as
opposed to compile time templates:

List<int> myInts= new List<int>();

Yes, there is a native STL. Managed STL will come with the next version of
Visual Studio.

You should not see any major difference for you STL code between
previous versions of VC++ and VS2005. I am in middle of porting a large
VC6 app to VS2005 (all unmanaged) and I have encounterd only one STL
related issue.

 

[Peter Olcott]

By next version do you mean the one that is already out, the 2005 version?

 

[Peter Olcott]

I want to know if there is a managed version of STL.

I want to know if there is a managed version of STL.

STL.NET was supposed to be shipped with VC2005 but it was removed for
performance reasons. See http://blog.voidnish.com/?p=64 for more.

Maybe they'll release it as a service pack along the way, but it is not
there now... We do know that they are working on it.

From what I understand from all the readings, it would be post VS2005(which
is already in the market)
So keep watching.............

That's what I heard as well, but nothing concrete has been said.

I could still use the .NET Generics equivalent though, right?

Yes.
