Red Hat Issue Tracker HRCPP-151 0 Major Resolved Do not use STL classes in public API 2014-10-27 09:52:01 UTC

Description Radim Vansa 2014-05-19 13:52:09 UTC 
Allowing STL classes to be transferred across library boundary is a severe threat to the application stability as we cannot guarantee binary compatibility of the library with application - STL has fixed API but not ABI.
Comment 1 Radim Vansa 2014-05-19 13:54:54 UTC 
The fix in HRCPP-151 keeps backward API compatibility with previous releases (JDG 6.2), only deprecates several methods that have now inefficient implementation (in order to keep the API compatibility and guarantee stable ABI).
Comment 3 Alan Field 2014-06-19 14:40:53 UTC 
Verified that all C++ client tests pass with JDG 6.3.0 ER7
