Boost C++ Libraries

...one of the most highly regarded and expertly designed C++ library projects in the world. — Herb Sutter and Andrei Alexandrescu, C++ Coding Standards

//  developers. He also commented:
//
//       "I'm not sure how useful __GLIBCXX__ is for your purposes, for instance in
//       GCC 4.2.4 it is set to 20080519 but in GCC 4.3.0 it is set to 20080305.

//       than any release in the 4.2 series."
