Iterators and the std() Gateway
The Tools.h++ templates are meant to enhance the Standard C++ Library, not to stand as a
barrier to it. The iterators described in the previous section are standard iterators, and you can
use them in conjunction with any components offering a standard iterator-based interface. In
particular, you can use all of the standard algorithms with the Rogue Wave standard
library-based collections. For example:
RWTValOrderedVector vec;
// ... < put stuff in vector >
// Set the first 5 elements to 0:
fill(vec.begin(), vec.begin() + 5, 0);
In addition, you are always free to access, and in some cases to manipulate, the underlying
Standard C++ Library collection class. This is accomplished via the std() member function,
which returns a reference to the implementation.
