does anyone have a comprehensive C/C++ online language reference? I occasionally use the M$DN one. It's comprehensive with plenty of code examples but I always feel guilty using something from Micro$oft and it's also not a very fast web site, too much extra crap cluttering the screen. Anyone know of a good one?

I don't have a problem using MSDN...its one of the few good things from MS :)
I just noticed that some newsgroups contain plenty of C/C++ info, maybe you could try one of those(like comp.lang.c++)

Dinkumware (http://www.dinkumware.com) produce a C++ standard library (mostly for MS I believe), but also have online manuals (http://www.dinkumware.com/manuals/reader.aspx?lib=cpp).

Providing a standard library reference is what you are after and not a syntax reference.

Try install libstdc++6-4.0-doc and look around.

I can highly recommend buying the excellent book »The C++ Standard Library: A Tutorial and Reference« by Nicolai M. Josuttis who was a member of the standardization comittee. You can get an impression of the book and search inside it at the amazon website (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0201379260/qid=1135608358/sr=2-1/ref=pd_bbs_b_2_1/102-2019939-0759364?s=books&v=glance&n=283155).

www,cplusplus.com is also a good site for C++ documentation and reference. It contains lots of information about this programming language.
