Thanks for what you do STL (For those that don't know, Stephan maintains Microsofts C++ standard library). Even though I don't develop against MSVC at all, improving the state of C++ at Microsoft makes life easier for all of us in terms of portability and bringing nice new things in to common use.

Thank you also for maintaining your GCC distro for Windows[0] and the the many great presentations you have given at CppCon, Channel 9, Going Native etc.

You're welcome! And even if you don't use VC's STL, hopefully make_unique and the other things I've designed will be helpful.


And for making this possible

    vector<int> v = {1,2,3,4,5}; 
    cout << accumulate(begin(v), end(v), 1, multiplies<>());


I'm curious..

Is it possible to use VIsual C++'s STL inside of Linux?


Nope, our sources assume they're running on Windows.
