I have just found out about the Lambda Library which adds useful generalisation to the STL. See http://lambda.cs.utu.fi/ for details.

It relies on templates in a way which is not yet available in the DM compiler.

Is there any chance of developments in this direction?

I am too swamped to take it on. Anyone interested in doing so?

Well, I guess it would mean compiler development as it's probably using the same kind of things as the latest STL...

I'll get to that challenge, but not in the very near future.

Thankyou, Walter, that is rather what I expected, and it offers me hope for the future. In the meantime I will explore it with GCC 2.95.2 on mingw32.

I had a look at the code of the Lambda Library, and I don't think workarounds are going to do. Among other things, it nests templates up to 40 deep, which is a setting fed to the GCC compiler.

Thanks again

I hope you do get to this some time.

I have tried out Lambda Library with the new 8.1e and it does not compile yet.

Thanks though for the progress.
