Using stlport. I use the hash containers and the rope class, neither of which are available with VC++.

Even with almost zero focus on native C++ and in the midst of heavy push for .NET from Microsoft marketing, it seems that native C++ libraries such as MFC/ATL/WTL/STL are doing pretty good so far.
Oh well, only time will tell what we'll see next.

Very sad that 46 chose MFC, and 9 chose STL to date.

However most of "text answers" contains STL.

Christian, that does not mean that MFC users don't use STL or they dislike STL.
IMHO, MFC and STL are complimentary and not contradictory. STL has a great collection of container classes and can be easily used from MFC. On the other hand, MFC provides a great Windowing framework that STL does not, at least officially.

I could only choose one and MFC is the one that I use most often. Even though I use STL for all my collection classes and strings, I still use MFC more.
Like you said below, this should have been a check-box question rather than a radio button.

Programming is great. First they pay you to introduce bugs into software. Then they pay you to remove them again.

Huh... I could choose multiple answers.

You need to get up earlier. First thing this morning, this poll was radio buttons not check boxes. I guess Chris has fixed it since. Sadly I can't vote again.

No worries. I'll vote for STL twice to make up for you.

Yep, and I'm sure it's becuase of CString. I do have to admit, CString is much easier to use than string and wstring . That's why I use the CStdString class that somebody here was kind enough to post.

Am I supposed to only be able to choose one ? I use ATL, and the .NET libraries as well, but STL was the only choice I could make if I was limited to one

I was thinking the same thing - this should be a Check Box Poll, not a Radio Button Poll.

Also, why only the containers&co ("STL") part of the standard C++ library?

I think STL has become shorthand for the std library. Truth be told, I get more excited about iostreams nowadays, but I still love the STL.

hmm.. iostreams are part of the "templates" as well nowadays, isn't it? Last time I checked it was 50% templates (iterators and traits), and 50% "solid code".
I think pretty much all code under std is more or less entangled with STL. Can one make a distinction?

Agreed. In fact the question was worded as the lib that made your programming life easier. For me that is any lib that does what I need it to do. We used some Dundas stuff in a previous project. This made life easier in that I didn't have to write it myself. (Though this can be fun if you don't have a deadline. )

This is a bad voting question I use:
MFC, ATL, STL, WTL, .NET base class library
Developing with C++ is like programming by the seat of your pants

YEs, I've used all of those, but have in recent times been liberated from writing C++ GUI code.

I agree - should be checkboxes. I would have chosen:
STL
wxWindows
Other - zlib
While I use MFC, it is debatable whether it actually makes life easier.
