The only reason you can't find documentation for C++ libraries is because you haven't looked. Stop spreading misinformation and STFW. Explore the URLs below. http://www.sgi.com/tech/stl/ http://www.dinkumware.com/refxcpp.html While I did voluntarily purchase one dead tree book on C++ (I have others, but they were either free or required for a class, and I haven't found any of them useful), I also voluntarily purchased one dead tree book on C (and have others that were free and minimally useful). I have found both books useful through the years, but rarely refer to either now that I have gained sufficient expertise with the languages, not to mention the convenience of the aforementioned websites. --Greg -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
