I've searched this new group with the keyword: "kernel library array
list".

I am looking for an open source C++ class library for kernel mode
programming, because the C++ standard library and STL cannot be used in
the kernel mode. The library should provide some fundamental data
structures and algorithms like dynamic size array, list, string,
hash/map, tree, graph, sort, etc. It has to be licensed in LGPL style.

The most important of all, this library cannot use any C++ RTL and STL
functions.

I am betting you haven't found much, have you?

Have you heard of "Google"? I mean, the _web_search_.

Which kernel do you mean?

It cannot? Well, I suppose that's right. The C++ Standard mentions
nothing about "kernel mode".

If it can't use RTL, how in hell would it provide dynamic size array
without 'malloc'? Oh, wait, it must be allowed to use OS-specific
means to allocate memory, right? Shouldn't you then be asking about
it in the _OS-specific_ newsgroup?

Yes, I tried to google for it. Some are commerical. Some seem not
matintained anymore or I cannot tell the number of users (assume it's
proportion to the stability). For example:
http://cxx.uclibc.org/index.html

C++ RTL and STL cannot be used in the kernel mode. Please refer to
http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/driver/kernel/KMcode.mspx. I am looking
for replacements for them.

The library should not be specific to any kernel mode. I am looking for
a cross platform library.

"If it can't use RTL, how in hell would it provide dynamic size array

- Yes, if it uses the new operator, we can override it with some
OS-specific memory allocation functions.

It's something similar to the Embedded C++ library or Embedded STL. Is
there any open source LGPL implementation?

You sould specifies what kind of kernel.Linux ,vxworks,or windows?

Do what I did, write the bits you need when you need them.

You'll be hard pushed to find such a library, for a start every compiler
has its own way of doing its run time, which is unlikely to be documented.

It's surprising how much you can do with just your own new and delete.
