5.2: |
|
2 |
|
|
3 |
- Major modifications: |
|
4 |
|
|
5 |
* Use of #include_next to access native platform/compiler headers when the |
|
6 |
preprocessor support it. Enhance STLport portability as native header path do |
|
7 |
not have to be adapted each time the header structure is modified. |
|
8 |
|
|
9 |
* Yet a modification of the include schema in all C++ Standard headers. Now |
|
10 |
_STLP_WHOLE_NATIVE_STD mode works as expected, used in conjonction with |
|
11 |
_STLP_DONT_REDEFINE_STD it is possible to use STLport in stlport namespace at |
|
12 |
the same time as using native library in std namespace. |
|
13 |
|
|
14 |
* Use of the gcc visibility feature for gcc versions after 4.0. |
|
15 |
|
|
16 |
* For builds under Windows, STLport now adapt to the PSDK used to build it. It |
|
17 |
should be the same as the one used when building an application using the |
|
18 |
STLport libs. A compatibility detection mecanism has been implemented in order |
|
19 |
to report not homogeneous build environment with a link error rather than undefined |
|
20 |
runtime error. |
|
21 |
|
|
22 |
- Enhancements: |
|
23 |
|
|
24 |
* Use of malloc based allocator on system having GlibC 2.3 and later, keep |
|
25 |
node allocator for others. |
|
26 |
|
|
27 |
* Delay instanciation of type traits type in vector and deque implementation to |
|
28 |
be able to use some of the nested types like iterator even if type used to |
|
29 |
instanciate the container is not completely defined. |
|
30 |
|
|
31 |
* Container pointer specialization feature now works even with incomplete types |
|
32 |
thanks to use of partial template specialization. |

5.1: |
|
35 |
|
|
36 |
- Major modifications |
|
37 |
|
|
38 |
* Folder architecture: All configuration files are now in stlport/stl/config folder. |
|
39 |
stlport/stl_user_config.h renamed and moved as stlport/stl/config/user_config.h. |
|
40 |
stlport/stl/_site_config.h renamed and moved as stlport/stl/config/hosts.h. |
|
41 |
STLport configuration now also try to seperate platform configuration from compiler |
|
42 |
one. |
|
43 |
|
|
44 |
* Allocators implementation is in src folder to enhance encapsulation. Default |
|
45 |
allocator when using STLport without building it (_STLP_NO_IOSTREAMS) is the simple |
|
46 |
new/delete based allocator, node allocator is the default when building the lib. |
|
47 |
|
|
48 |
* Access to native headers has been modified to make STLport less dependant on |
|
49 |
native headers internal includes, should improve portability. |
|
50 |
|
|
51 |
* Segregation of headers has been improved. You might have to add now missing |
|
52 |
functional or algorithm Standard headers include in your code. |
|
53 |
|
|
54 |
- Enhancements |
|
55 |
|
|
56 |
* Support enhancements: |
|
57 |
- Borland compilers starting with the free one (5.5.1) |
| 855566d by complement at 2006-10-18 |
58 |
- HP aC++/ANSI C B3910B A.06.06 |
| fa5f907 by dums at 2006-06-19 |
59 |
- Visual Studio 2005 for Windows CE |
|
60 |
- Use of intrinsic type traits support of Visual Studio 2005 |
|
61 |
|
|
62 |
* Improved meta programming techniques especially in uninitialized_* algorithms. |
|
63 |
If you need a vector of null pointer prefer to write 'vector<void*> v(10)' rather |
|
64 |
than 'vector<void*> v(10, (void*)0)'. |
|
65 |
|
|
66 |
* Fully functional pointer specialization feature (_STLP_USE_PTR_SPECIALIZATIONS). |
|
67 |
|
|
68 |
* Extension of template search methods in associative and hashed container has |
|
69 |
been completed. |
|
70 |
|
|
71 |
* STL safe mode: Now detect badly implemented strict weak ordering functors, assert |
|
72 |
if a < b && b < a. Same for equivalent functor used in hash container implementation, |
|
73 |
assert if a <=> b but !(b <=> a). |
|
74 |
|
|
75 |
* Improved locale creation delay on Windows platform. |
|
76 |
|
|
77 |
* STL containers implementation now correctly handle allocators with state. This kind |
|
78 |
of allocator has to overload swap method if any specific action has to be made when |
|
79 |
swaping 2 instances. |
|
80 |
|
|
81 |
* STLport is ready for safe string functions *_s (_STLP_USE_SAFE_STRING_FUNCTIONS) |
|
82 |
|
| 8328278 by dums at 2006-11-04 |
83 |
* Many bug fixes, see etc/ChangeLog-5.1. |

5.0: |
|
86 |
|
|
87 |
- Major modifications |
|
88 |
|
|
89 |
* No more wrapper mode: you can use STLport iostreams or no iostreams |
|
90 |
at all. |
|
91 |
|
|
92 |
* _STLP_NO_CUSTOM_IO now also hide basic_string implementation |
|
93 |
|
|
94 |
* internal namespace schema has been modified, see doc folder for additionnal |
|
95 |
informations. |
|
96 |
|
|
97 |
- Enhancements |
|
98 |
|
|
99 |
* Support of many modern C++ compilers and platforms |
|
100 |
- gcc 3.4.0 and later |
|
101 |
- MSVC .Net 2002, 2003 and MSVC 2005 Beta |
|
102 |
- Windows CE |
|
103 |
see build/test/unit/STATUS for a complete list of tested platforms/compilers |
|
104 |
|
|
105 |
* Move semantic: vector or deque of any other STL containers are using |
|
106 |
move semantic when resized or modified rather than copy. |
|
107 |
|
|
108 |
* New checks in safe STL mode like null pointer or check of iterator range |
|
109 |
pass to container constructors. |
|
110 |
|
|
111 |
* Expression template for string concatenation operations (available |
|
112 |
throught the _STLP_USE_TEMPLATE_EXPRESSION config option) |
|
113 |
|
|
114 |
* Implementation of the short string optimization trick, basic_string have |
|
115 |
a small static buffer in this case. |
|
116 |
|
|
117 |
* STL containers vector, deque, list and slist pointer specialization to |
|
118 |
limit code bloats (see _STLP_USE_PTR_SPECIALIZATIONS on config file) |
|
119 |
|
|
120 |
* Use of boost type_traits rather than internal equivalent when requested |
|
121 |
(see _STLP_USE_BOOST_SUPPORT in config file) |
|
122 |
|
|
123 |
* set/multiset, or map/multimap iterators cannot be compared anymore. |
|
124 |
|
|
125 |
* unordered_set, unordered_multiset, unordered_map, unordered_multimap hash |
|
126 |
containers implementation specified in the TR1 document. |
|
127 |
|
|
128 |
* Thanks to the _STLP_LEAKS_PEDANTIC config option you can ask STLport to |
|
129 |
clean its memory pool before being unloaded, useful to only detect real |
|
130 |
memory leak problems. |
|
131 |
|
|
132 |
* Creation of configuration scripts to make STLport configuration easier. |
|
133 |
|
|
134 |
* Improvment of some algorithm like search_n or stable_sort. |
|
135 |
|
|
136 |
* Ported to 64 bits platforms. |
|
137 |
|
|
138 |
* Large file ( > 4 Go) stream support on Win32 platform. |
