Is there a free and recommandable documentation of the C/C++ library functions/headers on the net? I want to point students to it so they can lookup functions when doing C++ programming.

I want to point students to it so they can lookup functions when doing C++ programming. Have you tried MSDN (msdn.microsoft.com)? It is a great reference for C, C++, Win32, DirectX, and OpenGL functions, and should be a great tool for your students. However, I find that a reference on C/C++ is an invaluable tool, and I recommend that your students find a reference that fits their needs as well.

Yes, the Silicon Graphics web site is quite good. The URL is: http://www.sgi.com/tech/stl/table_of_contents.html I would recommend the Josuttis book even though it costs. It is IMO an indispensible reference for the STL. The SGI site will probably do for starters though....

I want to point students to it so they can lookup functions when doing C++ programming. There is one for STL from SGI: http://www.sgi.com/tech/stl/ Which doesn't cover the entire standard library, but only the parts provided in the SGI library. Quote: For C and POSIX library functions I usually google for "site:opengroup.org function name>" For Posix functions, I too use the Open Group documentation (which can be downloaded and installed locally under certain conditions). For C functions, I use the Open Group documentation if and only if I want the documentation to include the Open Group extensions. For C and C++ standard functions, I use the standards. I wouldn't recommend the C++ standard for beginners, however, although I personally find the C standard fairly readable (as standards go). The Dinkumware site is well done for reference (I've not checked it for tutorials), but do they document the standard, or their (slight) differences? -- James Kanze GABI Software http://www.gabi-soft.fr Conseils en informatique orientée objet/ Beratung in objektorientierter Datenverarbeitung 9 place Sémard, 78210 St.-Cyr-l'École, France, +33 (0)1 30 23 00 34 [ See http://www.gotw.ca/resources/clcm.htm for info about ] [ comp.lang.c++.moderated.
