[Dpcl-develop] STL and DPCL

[Steve C. <sl...@sg...>]

  Thanks to Albert Feng for pointing out past portability issues when using
  STL in the DPCL codes. He states that "We count(), get_xxxx() service functions to
  avoid the std:: at any cost". As a DPCL novice, this is a bit too vague for me.
  I was wondering if Albert (or anyone else) could give some specific examples of
  DPCL 'service functions' (precise source location in ~dpcl/src) and tell me just
  which STL functionality they replace. That way I can get an idea of just what
  would fit best as we implement our 'bget_all_statements' functionality for the
  ModuleObj level (only). Our originaly DPCL API change specified STL in a couple
  places and obviously we want to avoid going down the STL path if it has been a
  problem in the past.

                                                     Thanks again -
