While many posts say the STL libs are not generally available for arduino/embedded systems they seem to be installed on my Arduino compiler! And many work.
Problem: (complete sketch shown)
std::vector<int> foo; // this works fine
std::map<int,int> bar; // adding this gives an error
void setup() {}
void loop() {}
sketch_jun05a:4:1: error: 'map' in namespace 'std' does not name a type
std::map<int,int> bar;
^
So I don't know why std::vector would work but std::map would not work.
compiler platform: Ardunio.app 1.8.12 on Mac OSX Catalina Targeting: ESP8266
Detailed error message is pasted below.
Analysis:
I went searching for map.h inside my arduino application and I found what looks to be an extensive set STL library classes including stl_map.h
these are located on my system at this path:
~/Library/Arduino15/packages//esp8266/tools/xtensa-lx106-elf-gcc/2.5.0-4-b40a506/xtensa-lx106-elf/include/c++/4.8.2
and most of the interesting looking headers are in a subdir called "bits".
The other strange thing is that std::vector works without including any header files. That's unexpected to me.
I have not configured my search paths or set any environment variables so whatever the Arduino App does as installed is what path it is searching on.
I also can't find any documentation on this.
Everything I do find says there isn't an STL for Arduino/ESP8266! I did find some gitbub project libraries named ArduinoSTL and avr_stl which previously I did install as local user libraries (not in the system libs) but I am not importing these in the sketch above.
Here is the full error message:
