REVIEW |
Generic Programming and the STL:
Using and Extending the C++ Standard Template Library Matthew H. Austern Addison Wesley Longman, October 1998 ISBN: 0201309564 |
||
| Written by the principal author of SGI?s implementation of the STL. A sophisticated book about the underlying concepts of the STL. Definitely not a tutorial, but helpful in understanding the STL as an extensible framework. | ||||
|
REVIEW |
The C++ Standard Library: A Tutorial and Reference
Author: Nicolai M. Josuttis Addison-Wesley, August 1999 ISBN: 0201379260 |
||
| A popular book about the entire standard library, not just the STL. A good tutorial and excellent reference that impresses by detail and scope. | ||||
|
REVIEW |
STL Tutorial & Reference Guide:
C++ Programming With the Standard Template Library, Second Edition David R. Musser, Gillmer J. Derge, Atul Saini Addison-Wesley, March 2001 ISBN: 0201633981 |
||
| Written by the David Musser, who worked with the STL?s creator on the first implementation of the STL. Still one of the best tutorials on the STL. Recommended reading for STL novices. | ||||
|
REVIEW |
Effective STL: 50 Specific Ways to Improve Your Use of
the Standard Template Library
Scott Meyers Addison-Wesley, June 2001 ISBN: 0201749629 |
||
| Written by the author of "(More) Effective C++". Covers traps and pitfalls in using the STL. Covers a number of issues that I discuss in my STL seminar. Recommended follow-up reading for course attendants. | ||||
|
REVIEW |
The C++ Standard Template Library
P. J. Plauger, Alexander A. Stepanov, Meng Lee, A. Alexander, David R. Musser Prentice Hall, December 2000 ISBN: 0134376331 |
||
| Explains an implementation of the STL. Useful if you want to gain a deeper understanding of the underlying mechanics of the STL. Not recommended if you are looking for a book that explains how to use the STL. | ||||
|
Beyond the C++ Standard Library:
An Introduction to Boost Björn Karlsson. Addison Wesley Professional, August 2005 ISBN: 0321133544 |
|||
| A book on the part of the Boost library that is most commonly used and has the greatest chance to become part of standard C++, among them smart pointers, regular expressions, binders and lambda expressions, and many more. | ||||
|
The C++ Standard Library Extensions. A Tutorial and Reference
Pete Becker Addison Wesley, August 2006 ISBN: 0321412990 |
|||
| The book is a reference to the extensions to the C++ standard library, which will become available with the next C++ standard. Basically, it is a reference manual of the library extensions specified in the first C++ Library Technical Report (TR1), which was approved by the International Standards Organization (ISO) in 2006. Among the additions are type traits, regular expressions, random number generators, hash-based containers, and many more. | ||||
|
C++ in a Nutshell
Ray Lischner O'Reilly & Associates, Mai 2003 ISBN: 059600298X |
|||
| A comprehensive reference to the language and the standard library. The book is amazingly good. The library reference has entries for all parts of the standard C++ library plus a complete reference of the standard C library. The language part is equally excellent and even explains widely unknown language features such as sequence points and argument dependent name lookup (also known as "Koenig" lookup). Definitely not a book for learning the language, but an excellent reference to the language. | ||||

Die C++-Standardbibliothek - Einführung und Nachschlagewerk
Stefan Kuhlins & Martin Schader Springer-Verlag, November 1998 ISBN: 3540650520 |
||
| This book was highly recommended by a student of mine (Otto Böhrer, SAP AG) who brought this book to an STL seminar for further reference. From what I have seen it is comprehensive, up-to-date, and notably structured (lots of useful diagrams and tables that aid orientation and understanding). | ||||

Data Structures in C++ Using the Standard Template Library
Timothy Budd Addison-Wesley, October 1997 ISBN: 0201308797 |
||||
|

||||
| This was the first title about the STL and is accordingly immature. Out of print. | ||||
