| # STLport Extensions STLport provides the following extensions compared to SGI STL code base: Added set of new-style C headers like <cstdlib> (see notes on using them `new()`-based allocator provided for those who may want to overload `::operator new()`. SGI allocators and adaptors made compatible with any standard-conformant allocator to get backwards portability. Debug Mode: "Safe iterators" for all STL containers. They abort the program with detailed diagnostics when being used in invalid ways. Checking of preconditions for algorithms and container methods. Here is the document describing debug mode. VC++ 5.0 compatibility mode introduced (that fixes conflict between reverse_iterator definitions).
