I'm not an expert on STL implementations, but you could try
http://www.stlport.org/download.html.

For more information on using C++ without pointers or arrays, take a look at

Fine - if you can avoid using C, do so! For those who must use C, there is
rarely any good reason to use pointer arithmetic anyway. Some of the best
C++ developers do not even use arrays (they use classes from the standard
template library instead).

Fascinating! C++ without pointers or arrays, using the STL. I'm writing a book
about Perl right now, but when I'm done perhaps I'll research the STL more
thoroughly.

Where would I find the Standard Template Library for the gcc that comes on
Linux computers (I use Mandrake 9.0 and 9.2)?

Thanks
