Diffs as follows at end of message (and in release notes).

Noteworthy changes:

 - UNIXSTL's filesystem_traits has new fstat(), open(), close() and
get_file_size() methods
 - UNIXSTL's readdir_sequence has the BREAKING CHANGE of value_type being
   redefined from struct dirent const * to char const *. To get the old behaviour,
define
   UNIXSTL_READDIR_SEQUENCE_OLD_VALUE_TYPE

 There are also two new classes:

 - WinSTL's memory_mapped_file
 - UNIXSTL's memory_mapped_file

And a whole new sub-project, PlatformSTL, which provides platform abstraction for structurally conformant UNIXSTL and WinSTL components. For example,

    #include <platformstl/memory_mapped_file.hpp>

will introduce either unixstl::memory_mapped_file or winstl::memory_mapped_file
into
the platformstl namespace. All PlatformSTL headers include
<platformstl/platformstl.hpp>,
which will detect either UNIX (unix) or Win32 (WIN32) compilation, and define the
corresponding symbol PLATFORMSTL_OS_IS_UNIX or PLATFORMSTL_OS_IS_WIN32.

Note: PlatformSTL only contains mappings between components from the two operating
systems that are structurally conformant. Examples are file_path_buffer,
process_mutex,
pipe, etc. Although the conformance is not necessarily 100% in all cases, it is
high in all cases.
For components where structural conformance is low, they are not included in
PlatformSTL, and
you'll have to use them 'manually', via direct inclusion of the winstl or unixstl
headers, and
explicit pre-processor discrimination. This is, of course, deliberate. PlatformSTL
promises
nothing it cannot deliver.

Great!!!
I'd been meaning to suggest this for a couple of days but kept forgetting to
actually post about it...

I haven't forgotten about the documentation, I'm just reading a lot of it before I decide to write something...

Yeah, it's time I addressed structural conformance and gave it its due respect. (I'm actually writing a bit about it in the Extended STL draft at the mo, which is part of the reason why I'm moving on it now.)

No worries. I am a patient patient. :-)

The download through: http://synesis.com.au/software/stlsoft/downloads.html

for the beta 4 release appears to be corrupt. I can only download about 15% of the stated 1.1 megs. The resulting download can not be opened with winzip.

It's there ok. (After I post something I always download it to make sure it's there ok <g>)

I just downloaded it again, and it worked fine.

Try emptying your cache?? :-)

We're all dumb-dumbs. ;)
