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.Exactly, which is why I prefer the idea Borland has gone for. The STL is not a good idea.
Where are Hash Tables, B-Trees, etc? A simple interface for lists is not an innovation IMHO.
