Can someone tell me what is required of the size_type type for standard
containers (and other standard classes defining this type)? Specifically:
1) Are the requirements the same for each container & class?
2) Is it required to have a particular "signed-ness", and if so, which one?
3) Are there required minimum limits for size_type, and if so, what are
they?
4) Is size_type required to be an alias for one of the built-in types?
Thanks.
-Kevin

You can look it up for yourself: http://oscinfo.osc.edu/software/docs...r.requirements

Hi,
which guidelines should be used about those integer types defined in the
C++ Standard Library, like string::size_type, istream::pos_type, etc.? Are
they meant to be used only in the library code?
For example, if I call istream::tellg(), should I store its result in a
variable of type pos_type?
Are there any problems if I simply use ints everywhere?

What is the difference between size_t and vector<T>::size_type?
Are they ever a different type or a different size?
Why should one type the latter when the former is shorter?
What about the size_type type in other STL classes?

Hello, I was working on a program where I needed to take a vector storing
objects of type std::string and convert each object to an int and store the
ints in another vector. I decided that I should create a templated function
for this because I've done similar things before and expect to do similar
things again (i.e., converting a collection of one type to a collection of
another type).
This is my test program, it compiles but if I try to...

Hi,guys!
Please look at this problem, when I use "int i", it success, but when I
use string::size_type i, it fail with a out_of_range exception.
//---------------- begin----------------------------
int str_to_num(const string& s)
{
int num = 0;
int interval = 1;
int i; // success

Hello,
I think any specialized size_type, such as string::size_type and
vector<T>::size_type, is defined in terms of size_t, which is much
more low level. Since they are more or less equivalent, what's the
advantage of using size_type over size_t?
Thanks,
Jess

Alright, I am sort of confused on c++ iterators having both
distance_type and size_type.
On sgi and Microsoft compiler it uses distance_type for input
iterator. For mingw and cygwin it uses size_type , is it just standard
issues or is it platform dependent.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:
g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp
Here is the code in...

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

I succeeded, with both firewalls in the same network. But I'm wondering if it's possible to do the same thing, with 2 Pfsense firewalls...
