- As a result of all the responses I got to my question about
- STL-compatible compilers, I now have two good-sized lists. The first
- list includes both compilers that are known to be compatible with STL,
- and where the cutoff point for compatibility is, if known. The second
- list is the most recent version of compilers known to be
- _incompatible_ with STL. As compilers come into line on this, they
- will move from the second list to the first.
-
- I am willing to maintain this list, so any updates and fixes are
- welcome, but please email them to me so I can collect them and post
- them all at once. No guarantees on the update frequency, though.

- Compilers Compatible with STL
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- Each compiler listed is shown with the oldest version that is known to
- compile STL correctly. If there are just a few contributors for a
- given compatibility report, their addresses are listed after the
- compiler name. Once I get "enough" agreeing reports (my call), I'll
- consider the matter provisionally closed, and the compiler's name will
- stand alone.
-
- "STL" is considered to be HP STL, draft standard STL, or some modified
- version that comes with the compiler that offers all the functionality
- of HP or draft standard STL.
-
- Borland C++ 4.5
- GNU g++ 2.7.2
- Metrowerks Codewarrior 8.0 <jcoffin@rmii.com>, Peter Kriens
- <peter.kriens@aQute.se>
- Visual C++ 4.0 (debugger has problems with it)
-
-
- Compilers Incompatible with STL
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- Sun C++ 4.0 <frankie@mundens.southern.co.nz>
- cfront 3.0

-
- Still Looking For Info On...
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- Borland C++ 4.0
- GNU g++ 2.7.0 and 2.7.1 (will either do it, or is 2.7.2 required?)
- Sun C++ 4.1 (almost compatible?) <ed@metaxa.wimsey.com>
- Symantec C++ (Mac and Windows) (I have two "maybes")
- Watcom C++ (I have one "not as-is"; is there a public port?)
- ...anything else I can find!
