If your using VC6, the standard STL provided is NOT threadsafe. We had issues due to it sharing variables between allocations in the std::string calls which would eventually lead to memory corruption.

Changing to StlPort solved all these issues.

See http://support.microsoft.com/kb/813810[^] for details.

You should read the documentation of STLport and see what they say is the advantage of using it over standard STL.

You did not specify which version of Visual Studio you have in mind. STLPort was better for VC++ 6.0 and older, but not today.

Hi,

There is no such thing as standard STL. There is a compiler provided Standard C++ Library and the standard lets the compilers authors provide it with whichever implementation they want as long as it meets the standard requirements.

At a time where most compilers provided only a part of the Standard C++ Library, STLport provided a single implementation of STL (a subset of the Standard C++ Library) compiling on most of that time available C++ compilers.

Nowadays, all C++ compilers provide the full Standard C++ Library so STLport is widely obsolete.

cheers,
AR
