I could only choose one and MFC is the one that I use most often. Even though I use STL for all my collection classes and strings, I still use MFC more.
Like you said below, this should have been a check-box question rather than a radio button.

Programming is great. First they pay you to introduce bugs into software. Then they pay you to remove them again.

Huh... I could choose multiple answers.

You need to get up earlier. First thing this morning, this poll was radio buttons not check boxes. I guess Chris has fixed it since. Sadly I can't vote again.

No worries. I'll vote for STL twice to make up for you.

Very sad that 46 chose MFC, and 9 chose STL to date.
Yep, and I'm sure it's becuase of CString. I do have to admit, CString is much easier to use than string and wstring . That's why I use the CStdString class that somebody here was kind enough to post.

Am I supposed to only be able to choose one ? I use ATL, and the .NET libraries as well, but STL was the only choice I could make if I was limited to one

I was thinking the same thing - this should be a Check Box Poll, not a Radio Button Poll.

Also, why only the containers&co ("STL") part of the standard C++ library?
|

I think STL has become shorthand for the std library. Truth be told, I get more excited about iostreams nowadays, but I still love the STL.

hmm.. iostreams are part of the "templates" as well nowadays, isn't it? Last time I checked it was 50% templates (iterators and traits), and 50% "solid code".
I think pretty much all code under std is more or less entangled with STL. Can one make a distinction?

Agreed. In fact the question was worded as the lib that made your programming life easier. For me that is any lib that does what I need it to do. We used some Dundas stuff in a previous project. This made life easier in that I didn't have to write it myself. (Though this can be fun if you don't have a deadline. )

This is a bad voting question I use:
MFC, ATL, STL, WTL, .NET base class library
Developing with C++ is like programming by the seat of your pants

YEs, I've used all of those, but have in recent times been liberated from writing C++ GUI code.

I agree - should be checkboxes. I would have chosen:
STL
wxWindows
Other - zlib
While I use MFC, it is debatable whether it actually makes life easier.

Agree! It just makes life "Microsoft Standardized". Only subjective oppions about "easier life" can be made.

My bad - I clicked the wrong button. Fixed now - not that it helps you, and not that it will ruin an otherwise rigourous and carefully conducted scientific survey

Actually, I consider this as a very important poll to see the impact of new libraries such as .NET and WTL on more traditional ones such as MFC and STL.
.. wish we could all vote with multiple choices from the beginning.
