bitset C++ header?

bitset C++ header?

[Ossama Othman]

Hi guys,

Sorry to bother you with a non-developer question but I was hoping someone
could tell me whether or not the standard C++ "bitset" class (not the
libg++ one) is going to be or has been implemented.  Egcs 1.0.2 doesn't
seem to have it.  It seems like it would be a useful class to have,
especially for amateurs like me.  :)

Thanks,
-Ossama

The rewritten libstdc++ will (at the end) implement what the standard
says, plus a few extensions which are already part of STL (rope,
single-linked lists etc).  That's all.  I don't think it is a good
idea to add all the fancy classes people come up with.  For this there
should be a separate project.

I should have posted a message about this some time ago, some people
are already trying to set up something like a library with a
collection of various classes.  I'm trying to come up with something
which could be a call for participation.

Uli,  would  you  mind  providing   us info  about   the contents   of
libstdc++'s rewrite?  I'm asking  this   because this will  of  course
influence the contents of a successor for libg++.

Will be available soon in the libstdc++ rewrite.
