It's=20=20 just a quick and dirty way to have a solution to inspect STL=20=20 containers today. I try at work to encourage the use of free software,=20=20 and I succeed to push the developpment of our software under Linux.=20=20 But, as we heavily use STL, I had to find something to deal with it=20=20 now, and by publishing the patch here, and just want to share it with=20=20 people like me that need something today, although it's far from=20=20 perfect.
