Hi all... I''ve pretty much been a Java programmer from the start and have gotten back into C++. Java has a rich API of classes at my disposal and I can find them all easily on SUN''s website. I believe the equivalent API for C++ is called the standard template library? Am I wrong on this? Either way could someone point me to a website that has the API docs and definitions? Thanks for any help!

Depends what library features you are looking for. STL is good for generic containers etc. boost.org also provide libraries with various templated features (including the always useful smart pointers etc.).



google for "SGI STL", i believe the link is one of the first ones. it has great docs. the MS implementations are a tad different, so you can search MSDN as well. though for most basic things the sgi one will do just fine.

I think what I want are the docs for the libraries already supplied in VC++. Like string manipulation, date/time classes... etc.
