   <para> For GCC releases from 2.95 through the 3.1 series, defining

   <literal>__USE_MALLOC</literal> on the gcc command line would change the

   default allocation strategy to instead use <code> malloc</code> and

   <function>free</function>. For the 3.2 and 3.3 release series the same
 |

   functionality was spelled <literal>_GLIBCXX_FORCE_NEW</literal>. From

   GCC 3.4 onwards the functionality is enabled by setting

This is a change from all previous versions, and may require
 | 
						|
source-level changes due to allocator-related changes to structures
 | 
						|
names and template parameters, filenames, and file locations. Some,
 | 
						|
like <code>__simple_alloc, __allocator, __alloc, </code> and <code>
 | 
						|
_Alloc_traits</code> have been removed.

<para>
 | 
						|
   Previous versions prior to 3.4 cache allocations in a memory
 | 
						|
   pool, instead of passing through to call the global allocation
 | 
						|
   operators (i.e., <classname>__gnu_cxx::pool_allocator</classname>).  More
 | 
						|
   recent versions default to the
 | 
						|
   simpler <classname>__gnu_cxx::new_allocator</classname>.
 | 
						|
</para>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
<para> Previously, all allocators were written to the SGI
 | 
						|
   style, and all STL containers expected this interface. This
 | 
						|
   interface had a traits class called <code>_Alloc_traits</code> that
 | 
						|
   attempted to provide more information for compile-time allocation
 | 
						|
   selection and optimization. This traits class had another allocator
 | 
						|
   wrapper, <code>__simple_alloc<T,A></code>, which was a
 | 
						|
   wrapper around another allocator, A, which itself is an allocator
 | 
						|
   for instances of T. But wait, there's more:
 | 
						|
   <code>__allocator<T,A></code> is another adapter.  Many of
 | 
						|
   the provided allocator classes were SGI style: such classes can be
 | 
						|
   changed to a conforming interface with this wrapper:
 | 
						|
   <code>__allocator<T, __alloc></code> is thus the same as
 | 
						|
   <code>allocator<T></code>.
 | 
						|
   </para>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
   <para> The class <classname>allocator</classname> used the typedef
 | 
						|
   <type>__alloc</type> to select an underlying allocator that
 | 
						|
   satisfied memory allocation requests. The selection of this
 | 
						|
   underlying allocator was not user-configurable.
