std::vector::insert (...) with reverse iterator on SunStudio RW STL

Posted on May 19, 2009 by yongsun

std::vector::insert (...) in SunStudio's RW STL, does not support reverse iterator, a workaround is to use std::copy (...) and back_inserter (...) instead, as following,

- dest.insert (dest.end(), src.rbegin(), src.rend()); + std::copy (src.rbegin(),src.rend(),back_inserter(dest));

Hi Yong Sun,
you don't need that hack, just compile your C++ code with "-library=stlport4"

Hi, Anon, yeah, I knew, while I have to use the RW STL for ABI compatibilities.

ah pity, IHMO that roguewaves stuff should go away (or at least be made optional, with stlport4 as the new default), it's dog slow (see Solaris Application Programming by Darryl Gove, chapter 7.3.5 STLport4) and well, as you already noticed, incomplete

I hate Rogues Wave, why does Sun still keep this old slow thing?
For the simplest "cout << xxx << endl;", you can truss it to see how many unnecessary syscalls it generate...
