| 20.4.1 can use several different allocators; they are described on the |
| main extensions page. |
| </p><p> |
| 20.4.3 is extended with a special version of |
| <code class="code">get_temporary_buffer</code> taking a second argument. The |
| argument is a pointer, which is ignored, but can be used to specify |
| the template type (instead of using explicit function template |
| arguments like the standard version does). That is, in addition to |
| </p><pre class="programlisting"> |
| get_temporary_buffer<int>(5); |
| </pre><p> |
| you can also use |
| </p><pre class="programlisting"> |
| get_temporary_buffer(5, (int*)0); |
| </pre><p> |
| A class <code class="code">temporary_buffer</code> is given in stl_tempbuf.h. |
| </p><p> |
| The specialized algorithms of section 20.4.4 are extended with |
| <code class="code">uninitialized_copy_n</code>. |
