libstdcxx4 (3lib)

Name

libstdcxx4 - libstdcxx4 [ libstdcxx4.so.4 ]

Synopsis

The  Apache  C++ Standard Library implements sections 17 through 27 and
Annexes C, D, and E of the C++ Standard. The C++ Standard contains  the
following libraries:

The Language support library

The Diagnostics library

The General utilities library

The Strings library

The Localization library

The Containers library

The Iterators library

The Numerics library

The Input/Output library

Description

Apache Standard C++ Library                                   libstdcxx4(3lib)



Apache Standard C++ Library

NAME
       libstdcxx4 [ libstdcxx4.so.4 ]

SUMMARY
       An ISO/IEC 14882:1998  and ISO/IEC 14882:2003 -- International Standard
       for Information Systems -- Programming  Language  C++,  Section  25.2.8
       Compliant Implementation of the Standard C++ Library.

SYNOPSIS
       The  Apache  C++ Standard Library implements sections 17 through 27 and
       Annexes C, D, and E of the C++ Standard. The C++ Standard contains  the
       following libraries:

              The Language support library

              The Diagnostics library

              The General utilities library

              The Strings library

              The Localization library

              The Containers library

              The Iterators library

              The Algorithms library

              The Numerics library

              The Input/Output library

Standards Conformance
       This  implementation  of  the  C++ Standard Library conforms to ISO/IEC
       14882:2003 -- International Standard for Information  Systems  --  Pro-
       gramming  Language  C++. In addition, this implementation conforms to a
       subset of the requirements of the following standards:

       In some cases, this implementation of the C++ Standard Library provides
       extensions to enhance functionality and usability. These extensions are
       highlighted in the HTML documentation where they occur.

              ISO/IEC 559 (same as IEEE 754) Binary floating-point  arithmetic
              for microprocessor systems

              and extension     techniques

       These libraries are described in detail in the HTML documentation to be
       found under file:///usr/share/doc/stdcxx4/html/. The  names  of  public
       header  files provided by this implementation are the same as the Stan-
       dard header files.

       This manual page is provided as an introductory index to help you  find
       components  for  programming tasks as described in the Standard. If you

DESCRIPTION
Sun Studio 12:
       CPPFLAGS = `pkg-config --cflags-only-I libstdcxx4`
       CXXFLAGS = `pkg-config --cflags-only-other libstdcxx4`
       LDFLAGS = `pkg-config --libs libstdcxx4`


Sun Studio 12 Update 1 or later:
       CXXFLAGS = -library=stdcxx4
       LDFLAGS = -library=stdcxx4

Makefile:
       &.cpp.o:
           CC $(CPPFLAGS) $(CXXFLAGS) $< -o $@

NOTES
       The Apache Standard C++ Library is not source,  or  binary  compatible,
       with  either  the  STLport4  Library,  or with the Solaris libCstd.so.1
       Library. Combining symbols from more than  one  implementation  of  the
       Standard C++ Library into the same executable address space will result
       in severe software malfunctions, including crashes and  run-time  fail-
       ures.  It  is  a  fatal  software construction error to voluntarily, or
       inadvertently, combine symbols from more than one implementation of the
       Standard C++ Library, within the same executable address space.

       This  implementation  of the C++ Standard Library incorporates the fol-
       lowing updates to the ISO:14882:2003 Standard: JTC1/SC22/WC21 LWG Issue
       #197,  JTC1/SC22/WC21 LWG Issue #432 and JTC1/SC22/WC21 LWG Issue #562.
