C++ api representation ?

M

mark

is there a representation of C++ api (on the web.. ) similar to the
java api (on the sun's web site) that is laid out graphically, one can
view all the classes and for each class one can access its
members/methods

Standard C++ has no concept of "api" and "graphically".

I know of nothing equal to the Java API documentation for the C++ standard
library. Bear in mind that the actual Java Language is not documented in
the API documentation. Also bear in mind the C++ Standard specification is
not freely available on the net.

These are all variants on the same concept of online documentation of the
C++ Standard Library:
http://www.roguewave.com/support/docs/
http://www.sgi.com/tech/stl/

It pains me to reference anything from the heart of software darkness, but
this seems fairly good:

This is a pretty nice hyperlinked version of an older draft of the standard.

The actual standard document can be useful. I really wish it were
colorcoded. Particularly the template header pages. If you are serious
about C++, the standard document is worth having. You can get it here for
$18.00 US:

Finding information about libraries quickly and effectively in the way Java
programmers do is something some established C++ programmers find
offensive. The idea that such a thing should be easy offends them.
