Standard C++ Library TR1 Extensions Reference
Visual Studio 2008
This reference describes the Visual C++ implementation of the proposed extensions of the C++ ISO standard that are included in the draft document, "Technical Report 1." The Visual C++ implementation includes support for fixed-size arrays, function objects, hash tables, regular expressions, template metaprogramming, template types for aggregating related objects, and random-number generation.
Note:
Some features of TR1, such as the mathematical functions and certain C99 additions, are not included in the Visual C++ implementation of TR1.
Defines several templates that help construct function objects, which are objects of a type that defines operator(). A function object can be a function pointer, but more typically, the object is used to store additional information that can be accessed during a function call.
Defines a template class to parse regular expressions, and several template classes and functions to search text for matches to a regular expression object.
