1.0 General Information

|
||||
|
||||
1.1 What is libstdc++-v3?
|
||||
|
||||
The GNU Standard C++ Library v3, or libstdc++-2.90.x/2.9x, is an
|
||||
ongoing project to implement the ISO 14882 Standard C++ library as
|
||||
described in chapters 17 through 27 and annex D. As the library
|
||||
reaches stable plateaus, it is captured in a snapshot and released.
|
||||
The current release is [36]the tenth snapshot. For those who want to

||||
The current release is [35]the tenth snapshot. For those who want to
|
||||
see exactly how far the project has come, or just want the latest
|
||||
bleeding-edge code, the up-to-date source is available over anonymous
|
||||
CVS, and can even be browsed over the Web (see below).
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
A more formal description of the V3 goals can be found in the official
|
||||
[37]design document.

1.2 Why should I use libstdc++?
|
||||
|
||||
The completion of the ISO C++ standardization gave the C++ community a

|
|||
Library. However, all existing C++ implementations are (as the Draft
|
||||
Standard used to say) "incomplet and incorrekt," and many suffer from
|
||||
limitations of the compilers that use them.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
The GNU C/C++/FORTRAN/<pick-a-language> compiler (gcc, g++, etc) is
|
||||
widely considered to be one of the leading compilers in the world. Its
|
||||
development has recently been taken over by the [38]GCC team. All of

the rapid development and near-legendary [38]portability that are the
|

hallmarks of an open-source project are being applied to libstdc++.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
That means that all of the Standard classes and functions (such as
|
||||
string, vector<>, iostreams, and algorithms) will be freely available
|
||||
and fully compliant. Programmers will no longer need to "roll their
|
||||
own" nor be worried about platform-specific incompatabilities.

||||

|
||||
|

|

1.3 Who's in charge of it?
|
||||
|
||||
The libstdc++ project is contributed to by several developers all over
|
||||
the world, in the same way as GCC or Linux. Benjamin Kosnik, Gabriel
|
||||
Dos Reis, Phil Edwards, and Ulrich Drepper are the lead maintainers of
|
||||
the CVS archive.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Development and discussion is held on the libstdc++ mailing list.
|
||||
Subscribing to the list, or searching the list archives, is open to
|
||||
everyone. You can read instructions for doing so on the [40]homepage.

Here is [42]a page devoted to this topic. Subscribing to the mailing

list (see above, or the homepage) is a very good idea if you have
|
||||
something to contribute, or if you have spare time and want to help.
|
||||
Contributions don't have to be in the form of source code; anybody who
|
||||
is willing to help write documentation, for example, or has found a
|
||||
bug in code that we all thought was working, is more than welcome!

1.7 What happened to libg++? I need that!
|
||||
|
||||
The most recent libg++ README states that libg++ is no longer being
|
||||
actively maintained. It should not be used for new projects, and is
|
||||
only being kicked along to support older code.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
The libg++ was designed and created when there was no Standard to
|
||||
provide guidance. Classes like linked lists are now provided for by
|
||||
list<T> and do not need to be created by genclass. (For that matter,
|
||||
templates exist now and are well-supported, whereas genclass (mostly)
|
||||
predates them.)
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
There are other classes in libg++ that are not specified in the ISO
|
||||
Standard (e.g., statistical analysis). While there are a lot of really
|
||||
useful things that are used by a lot of people (e.g., statistics :-),

Yes, as of 2.90.8, it is intended as such. And as of 2.91,

libstdc++-v3 is the library that's shipped with g++, so much of this

The "anonymous client checkout" feature of CVS is similar to anonymous

||||
2.4 How do I know if it works?
|
||||
|
||||
libstdc++-v3 comes with its own testsuite. You do not need to actually
|
||||
install the library ("gmake install") to run the testsuite. Note that
|
||||
2.91 does not use DejaGNU yet.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
To run the testsuite on the library after building it, use "gmake
|
||||
check" while in your build directory. To run the testsuite on the
|
||||
library after building and installing it, use "gmake check-install"
|
||||
instead.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
The testsuite subdirectory in your build directory will then contain
|
||||
three files of the form YYYYMMDD-mkcheck*.txt. One of them
|
||||
(-mkcheck.txt itself) contains the results of the tests; this can be
|
||||
mailed to the list. The other files (-mkchecklog.txt and
|
||||
-mkcheckfiles.txt) contain messages from the compiler while building
|
||||
the test programs, and a list of the tests to be run, respectively.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
If you find bugs in the testsuite programs themselves, or if you think
|
||||
of a new test program that should be added to the suite, please write
|
||||
up your idea and send it to the list!

3.0 Platform-Specific Issues
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
3.1 Can libstdc++-v3 be used with <my favorite compiler>?
|
||||
|
||||
Probably not. Yet.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Because GCC advances so rapidly, development and testing of libstdc++
|
||||
is being done almost entirely under that compiler. If you are curious
|
||||
about whether other, lesser compilers (*grin*) support libstdc++, you

||||

@ -259,42 +256,42 @@
|
|||
(see above) will still require certain tools, however. Also keep in
|
||||
mind that building libstdc++ does not imply that your compiler will be
|
||||
able to use all of the features found in the C++ Standard Library.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Since the goal of ISO Standardization is for all C++ implementations
|
||||
to be able to share code, the final libstdc++ should, in theory, be
|
||||
useable under any ISO-compliant compiler. It will still be targeted
|
||||
and optimized for GCC/g++, however.

3.2 Building under Cygwin hangs/explodes!?
|
||||
|
||||
Sometimes, yes. You're probably in the middle of generating the
|
||||
numeric_limits specializations when it hangs, right? Thought so...
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
The <limits> header and its associated library code are
|
||||
platform-specific. These files get generated from scratch during
|
||||
installation, and it is this generator that is hanging. More
|
||||
specifically, the only sure way to determine what the
|
||||
numeric_limits<T>::traps boolean should be is to actually divide by
|
||||
zero and see if it is trapped or not.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Under NT, this will occasionally just hang. On those occasions when
|
||||
the test does not hang, the zero-division is in fact trapped. That
|
||||
doesn't prevent hanging elsewhere.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
You have two options. You can get a newer cygwin1.dll (see the Cygwin
|
||||
paragraph in the [55]installation instructions). Or you can get a
|
||||
paragraph in the [54]installation instructions). Or you can get a
|

prebuilt set of bits/std_limits.h and src/limitsMEMBERS.cc files from

4.4 Things in libstdc++ that look like bugs
|
||||
|
||||
There are things which are not bugs in the compiler (4.2) nor the
|
||||
language specification (4.3), but aren't really bugs in libstdc++,
|
||||
either. Really!
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
The biggest of these is the quadzillions of warnings about the library
|
||||
headers emitted when -Weffc++ is used. Making libstdc++
|
||||
"-Weffc++-clean" is not a goal of the project, for a few reasons.
|
||||
Mainly, that option tries to enforce object-oriented programming,
|
||||
while the Standard Library isn't necessarily trying to be OO. There
|
||||
are multiple solutions under discussion.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
The g++-3 headers are not ours
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
If you have found an extremely broken header file which is causing
|
||||
problems for you, look carefully before submitting a "high" priority
|
||||
bug report (which you probably shouldn't do anyhow; see the last
|
||||
paragraph of the page describing [60]the GCC bug database).
|
||||
|
||||
paragraph of the page describing [59]the GCC bug database).
|
||||
|
||||
If the headers are in ${prefix}/include/g++-3, then you are using the
|
||||
old libstdc++-v2 library, which is nonstandard and unmaintained. Do
|
||||
not report problems with -v2 to the -v3 mailing list.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Currently our header files are installed in ${prefix}/include/g++-v3
|
||||
(see the 'v'?). This may change with the next release of GCC, as it
|
||||
may be too confusing, but [61]the question has not yet been decided.

4.5 Aw, that's easy to fix!
|
||||
|
||||
If you have found a bug in the library and you think you have a
|
||||
working fix, then send it in! The main GCC site has a page on
|
||||
[62]submitting patches that covers the procedure, but for libstdc++
|
||||
[61]submitting patches that covers the procedure, but for libstdc++
|
||||
you should of course send the patch to our mailing list, not the GCC
|
||||
mailing list. The libstdc++ [63]contributors' page also talks about
|
||||
mailing list. The libstdc++ [62]contributors' page also talks about
|
||||
how to submit patches.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
In addition to the description, the patch, and the ChangeLog entry, it
|
||||
is a Good Thing if you can additionally create a small test program to
|
||||
test for the presence of the bug that your patch fixes. Bugs have a
|
||||
way of being reintroduced; if an old bug creeps back in, it will be
|
||||
caught immediately by the [64]testsuite -- but only if such a test

||||

5.0 Miscellaneous
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
5.1 string::iterator is not char*; vector<T>::iterator is not T*
|
||||
|
||||
If you have code that depends on container<T> iterators being
|
||||
implemented as pointer-to-T, your code is broken.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
While there are arguments for iterators to be implemented in that
|
||||
manner, A) they aren't very good ones in the long term, and B) they
|
||||
were never guaranteed by the Standard anyway. The type-safety achieved
|
||||
by making iterators a real class rather than a typedef for T*
|
||||
outweighs nearly all opposing arguments.

||||

|
||||
|
||||
5.2 What's next after libstdc++-v3?
|
||||
|
||||
Hopefully, not much. The goal of libstdc++-v3 is to produce a
|
||||
fully-compliant, fully-portable Standard Library. After that, we're
|
||||
mostly done: there won't be any more compliance work to do.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
The ISO Committee will meet periodically to review Defect Reports in
|
||||
the C++ Standard. Undoubtably some of these will result in changes to
|
||||
the Standard, which will be reflected in patches to libstdc++. Some of
|
||||
that is already happening, see 4.2. Some of those changes are being
|
||||
predicted by the library maintainers, and we add code to the library
|
||||
based on what the current proposed resolution specifies.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
The current libstdc++ contains extensions to the Library which must be
|
||||
explicitly requested by client code (for example, the hash tables from
|
||||
SGI). Other extensions may be added to libstdc++-v3 if they seem to be
|
||||
"standard" enough. (For example, the "long long" type from C99.)
|
||||
Bugfixes and rewrites (to improve or fix thread safety, for instance)
|
||||
will of course be a continuing task.

||||

||||
[65]This question about the next libstdc++ prompted some brief but
|
||||
