This chapter discusses an implementation of the containers hierarchy in C++ called Heterogeneous Container Class Library (HCCL). Recall that “container” refers to a list-like structure to store data items, and “heterogeneous” means containers can hold different kinds of items. Therefore, HCCL provides a collection of list-like structures that are able to store different kinds of items. HCCL mitigates typing constraints in C++ since programmers are spared the task of implementing new container types for each new kind of object they develop.
