Exactly, which is why I prefer the idea Borland has gone for. The STL is not
a good idea.    

Delphi doesn't have a decent containers library. TObjectList is derived from TList instead as being designed as a wrapper (if Borland had read the Danny Thorpe's book they would not implement it this way :-). TStringList is a cute class (I like it very much) and is an swiss army knife for Delphi, but nothing more, there are cases where other containers could do better.
Where are Hash Tables, B-Trees, etc? A simple interface for lists is not an innovation IMHO.
