Boost

Boost is a set of libraries for C++ that significantly expand the language using template meta-programming. A fully tested and preconfigured subset of Boost is included in C++Builder. Include paths have been set for the Boost libraries, and any other necessary libraries should be automatically linked. To use the Boost minmax library, for instance, your code should include: 

#include <boost/algorithm/minmax.hpp>

See Boost Libraries in the RAD Studio help, and see the Boost Open Source Project at http://www.boost.org.

CodeSite

The CodeSite Logging System gives you deeper insight into how your code is executing, and enables you to locate problems more quickly and ensure your application is running correctly.

Dinkumware (STL)

Dinkumware (STL) is a collection of template libraries for C++ included in C++Builder. The libraries include containers such as vectors, lists, sets, maps, bitsets. Dinkumware also includes algorithms for common operations such as sorting a container or searching inside a container. To implement the algorithms, STL includes iterators in five flavors for operating on a container: input, output, forward, backward and bidirectional. Functors, or function objects, are also available for overloading operators.

Dinkumware version 5.30 is available specifically for 64-bit Windows C++ application development.

See Dinkumware Standard C++ Library in the RAD Studio help, and see Dinkumware Ltd at http://www.dinkumware.com.
