Extending std::list

Question

I need to use lists for my program and needed to decide if I use std::vector or std::list. The problem with vector is that there is no remove method and with list that there is

Answer 1

The obvious stuff has already been described in details:

But the methods you choose to implement??

• Destructor.
  • Not required compiler will generate that for you.
• The two different versions of operator[] are pointless
  • Also you should be uisng std::list::size_type as the index
  • Unless you intend to support negative indexes.
• There are no const versions of operator[]
• If you are going to implement [] you should also do at()
• You missed out all the different ways of constructing a list.
• Containers should define several types internally
  • see http://www.sgi.com/tech/stl/Container.html

Answer 2

You have to move all your template code into header.
