Default + allocator when using STLport without building it (_STLP_NO_IOSTREAMS) is the simple + new/delete based allocator, node allocator is the default when building the lib. + + * Access to native headers has been modified to make STLport less dependant on + native headers internal includes, should improve portability. + + * Segregation of headers has been improved. You might have to add now missing + functional or algorithm Standard headers include in your code. + +- Enhancements + + * Support enhancements: + - Borland compilers starting with the free one (5.5.1) + - HP aC++/ANSI C B3910B A.06.06 + - Visual Studio 2005 for Windows CE + - Use of intrinsic type traits support of Visual Studio 2005 + + * Improved meta programming techniques especially in uninitialized_* algorithms. + If you need a vector of null pointer prefer to write 'vector v(10)' rather + than 'vector v(10, (void*)0)'. + + * Fully functional pointer specialization feature (_STLP_USE_PTR_SPECIALIZATIONS). + + * Extension of template search methods in associative and hashed container has + been completed. + + * STL safe mode: Now detect badly implemented strict weak ordering functors, assert + if a < b && b < a. Same for equivalent functor used in hash container implementation, + assert if a <=> b but !(b <=> a). + + * Improved locale creation delay on Windows platform. + + * STL containers implementation now correctly handle allocators with state. This kind + of allocator has to overload swap method if any specific action has to be made when + swaping 2 instances. + + * STLport is ready for safe string functions *_s (_STLP_USE_SAFE_STRING_FUNCTIONS) + + * Many bug fixes, see etc/ChangeLog-5.1. + +5.0: + +- Major modifications + + * No more wrapper mode: you can use STLport iostreams or no iostreams + at all. + + * _STLP_NO_CUSTOM_IO now also hide basic_string implementation + + * internal namespace schema has been modified, see doc folder for additionnal + informations. + +- Enhancements + + * Support of many modern C++ compilers and platforms + - gcc 3.4.0 and later + - MSVC .Net 2002, 2003 and MSVC 2005 Beta + - Windows CE + see build/test/unit/STATUS for a complete list of tested platforms/compilers + + * Move semantic: vector or deque of any other STL containers are using + move semantic when resized or modified rather than copy. + + * New checks in safe STL mode like null pointer or check of iterator range + pass to container constructors. + + * Expression template for string concatenation operations (available + throught the _STLP_USE_TEMPLATE_EXPRESSION config option) + + * Implementation of the short string optimization trick, basic_string have + a small static buffer in this case. + + * STL containers vector, deque, list and slist pointer specialization to + limit code bloats (see _STLP_USE_PTR_SPECIALIZATIONS on config file) + + * Use of boost type_traits rather than internal equivalent when requested + (see _STLP_USE_BOOST_SUPPORT in config file) + + * set/multiset, or map/multimap iterators cannot be compared anymore. + + * unordered_set, unordered_multiset, unordered_map, unordered_multimap hash + containers implementation specified in the TR1 document. + + * Thanks to the _STLP_LEAKS_PEDANTIC config option you can ask STLport to + clean its memory pool before being unloaded, useful to only detect real + memory leak problems. + + * Creation of configuration scripts to make STLport configuration easier. + + * Improvment of some algorithm like search_n or stable_sort. + + * Ported to 64 bits platforms. + + * Large file ( > 4 Go) stream support on Win32 platform.
