EASTL

EA Standard Template Library EASTL stands for Electronic Arts Standard Template Library. It is a C++ template library of containers, algorithms, and iterators useful for runtime and tool development across multiple platforms. It is a fairly extensive and robust implementation of such a library and has an emphasis on high performance above all other considerations. Usage If you are familiar with the C++ STL or have worked with other templated container/algorithm libraries, you probably don't need to read this. If you have no familiarity with C++ templates at all, then you probably will need more than this document to get you up to speed. In this case, you need to understand that templates, when used properly, are powerful vehicles for the ease of creation of optimized C++ code. A description of C++ templates is outside the scope of this documentation, but there is plenty of such documentation on the Internet. EASTL is suitable for any tools and shipping applications where the functionality of EASTL is useful. Modern compilers are capable of producing good code with templates and many people are using them in both current generation and future generation applications on multiple platforms from embedded systems to servers and mainframes.

Compiling sources Please see CONTRIBUTING.md for details on compiling and testing the source. Credits And Maintainers EASTL was created by Paul Pedriana and he maintained the project for roughly 10 years. EASTL was subsequently maintained by Roberto Parolin for more than 8 years. He was the driver and proponent for getting EASTL opensourced. Rob was a mentor to all members of the team and taught us everything we ever wanted to know about C++ spookyness. After Rob, maintenance of EASTL passed to Max Winkler for roughly a year, then to Liam Mitchell for about another year. The current maintainers (since circa 2022) are Galo Rojo and Jonathan Hopkins.
