[omniORB] Help on Sun C++ and STL

ObjectSpace (www.objectspace.com) has an implementation of the STL,
which we are using with the Sun 4.2 compiler.  I believe that the STL
part of their Toolkit is free.  They have a lot of other C++
portability/convenience libraries (threading, system calls, etc.), which
we have found to be extremely high quality and well-designed.  The
extras cost, though.

Good luck.
