What are the pros and cons of using Qt containers (QMap
, QVector
, etc.) over their STL equivalent?
I can see one reason to prefer Qt:
I am of the opinion that STL is a excellent piece of software however if I am to do some KDE or Qt related programming then Qt is the way to go. Also it depends on the compiler you are using, with GCC STL works pretty good however if you have to use say SUN Studio CC then STL will most likely bring you headaches because of the compiler not the STL per se. In that case since the compiler will make your head hurt just use Qt to save you the trouble. Just my 2 cents...
