Extensions from SGI/HP moved from <code class="code">namespace std</code>
|
||
to <code class="code">namespace __gnu_cxx</code>. As part of this, the following
|
||
new includes are
|
||
added: <code class="filename"><ext/algorithm></code>, <code class="filename"><ext/functional></code>, <code class="filename"><ext/iterator></code>, <code class="filename"><ext/memory></code>, and <code class="filename"><ext/numeric></code>.
|

</p><p>
|

</p><p>

</p><p>Symbol versioning introduced for shared library.</p><p>Removal of include <code class="filename"><backward/strstream.h></code>.</p><p>Allocator changes. Change <code class="code">__malloc_alloc</code> to <code class="code">malloc_allocator</code> and <code class="code">__new_alloc</code> to <code class="code">new_allocator</code>. </p><p> For GCC releases from 2.95 through the 3.1 series, defining
|
||
<code class="literal">__USE_MALLOC</code> on the gcc command line would change the
|
||
default allocation strategy to instead use <code class="code">malloc</code> and
|
||
<code class="code">free</code>. For the 3.2 and 3.3 release series the same
|
||
functionality was spelled <code class="literal">_GLIBCXX_FORCE_NEW</code>. From
|
||
GCC 3.4 onwards the default allocator uses <code class="code">new</code> anyway,
|
||
but for the optional pooling allocators the functionality is enabled by
|
||
setting <code class="literal">GLIBCXX_FORCE_NEW</code> in the environment, see
|
||
<a class="link" href="mt_allocator.html" title="Chapter 19. The mt_allocator">the mt allocator chapter</a>

Large file support.
|
||
</p><p> Extensions for generic characters and <code class="code">char_traits</code> added in <code class="filename"><ext/pod_char_traits.h></code>.
|
||
</p><p>
|
||
Support for <code class="code">wchar_t</code> specializations of <code class="code">basic_filebuf</code> enhanced to support <code class="code">UTF-8</code> and <code class="code">Unicode</code>, depending on host. More hosts support basic <code class="code">wchar_t</code> functionality.
|
||
</p><p>
|
||
Support for <code class="code">char_traits</code> beyond builtin types.
|
||
</p><p>
|
||
Conformant <code class="code">allocator</code> class and usage in containers. As
|
||
part of this, the following extensions are
|
||
added: <code class="filename"><ext/bitmap_allocator.h></code>, <code class="filename"><ext/debug_allocator.h></code>, <code class="filename"><ext/mt_allocator.h></code>, <code class="filename"><ext/malloc_allocator.h></code>,<code class="filename"><ext/new_allocator.h></code>, <code class="filename"><ext/pool_allocator.h></code>.
|
||
</p><p>
|
||
This is a change from all previous versions, and may require
|
||
source-level changes due to allocator-related changes to structures
|
||
names and template parameters, filenames, and file locations. Some,
|
||
like <code class="code">__simple_alloc, __allocator, __alloc, </code> and <code class="code">
|
||
_Alloc_traits</code> have been removed.
|
||
</p><p>Default behavior of <code class="code">std::allocator</code> has changed.</p><p>
|
||
Previous versions prior to 3.4 cache allocations in a memory
|
||
pool, instead of passing through to call the global allocation
|
||
operators (i.e., <code class="classname">__gnu_cxx::pool_allocator</code>). More
|
||
recent versions default to the
|
||
simpler <code class="classname">__gnu_cxx::new_allocator</code>.
|
||
</p><p> Previously, all allocators were written to the SGI
|
||
style, and all STL containers expected this interface. This
|
||
interface had a traits class called <code class="code">_Alloc_traits</code> that
|
||
attempted to provide more information for compile-time allocation
|
||
selection and optimization. This traits class had another allocator
|
||
wrapper, <code class="code">__simple_alloc<T,A></code>, which was a
|
||
wrapper around another allocator, A, which itself is an allocator
|
||
for instances of T. But wait, there's more:
|
||
<code class="code">__allocator<T,A></code> is another adapter. Many of
|
||
the provided allocator classes were SGI style: such classes can be
|
||
changed to a conforming interface with this wrapper:
|
||
<code class="code">__allocator<T, __alloc></code> is thus the same as
|
||
<code class="code">allocator<T></code>.
|
||
</p><p> The class <code class="classname">allocator</code> used the typedef
|
||
<span class="type">__alloc</span> to select an underlying allocator that
|
||
satisfied memory allocation requests. The selection of this
|
||
underlying allocator was not user-configurable.
