Will "STL .NET" of VS 2005 include a fully managed std::string?
Ronald said:Hi Ionannis,
No, it will not. Nor will it contain a .NET implementation of iostreams. The
iterators should work on System::String so you can use the standard
algorithms on that.
Can you illustrate what kind of functionality from std::string you are
missing and would like to see replicated?
Ioannis said:Since it was named "STL .NET" and std::string belongs to STL (while
iostreams do not), I just wondered if we would see a /clr:safe
implementation of basic_string essentially.
Tom said:A basic_string template wasn't part of the original STL, historically
speaking. I think that it was based on a string class (as opposed to
template); I don't know who wrote this original string class.
