Apache C++ Standard Library project (code name stdcxx) is a set of classes and functions, which are written in the core language.
Purpose[edit]
The Standard Library provides several generic containers, functions to utilise and manipulate these containers, function objects, generic strings and streams (including interactive and file I/O), support for some language features, and everyday functions for tasks such as finding the square root of a number. The goal of the Apache C++ Standard Library is to provide a free, open source implementation of the ISO/IEC 14882 international standard for C++ with cross-platform library, portability and consistent behavior.
History[edit]
In summer of 2005, Rogue Wave Software donated its commercial source code to Apache Software Foundation. After more than five years without a release, the board of the Apache Software Foundation decided to end this project and move it to Apache Attic.[1] This move occurred on May 15, 2014.
Key features[edit]
The key features of the stdcxx project at the time of submission include:
- Full conformance to the C++ Standard Library
- Complete implementation of the internationalization and localization library independent of the underlying operating system, including a large set of locale definition files, character set description files, and utility programs to process these files and generate locale databases
- User control over strict or permissive conformance checking
- Thread-safe implementation of strings, iostreams, and locales
- Reference counted basic_string implementation using atomic locking with the ability to switch to a non-reference counted implementation
- Excellent runtime performance
- Optimized for fast compiles and very small executable file sizes
- Portable to and fully tested on a large set of operating systems, including AIX, HP-UX, Linux, Solaris, Windows, etc.
- Portable to most leading commercial as well as open source compilers
- Debugging facilities such as safe iterators, precondition and postcondition checking, and the ability to generate stack traces
- Fully documented configuration and build infrastructure
- Thorough, well-maintained documentation
- Ten years of deployment in the world's most critical enterprise systems
