Thomas Witt in 2002 produced a prototype called cyclic buffer.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
The circular_buffer has a short history. Its first version was a std::deque
|
||
adaptor. This container was not very effective because of many reallocations
|
||
when inserting/removing an element. Thomas Wenish did a review of this version
|
||
and motivated me to create a circular buffer which allocates memory at once
|
||
when created.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
The second version adapted <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">std</span><span class="special">::</span><span class="identifier">vector</span></code>
|
||
but it has been abandoned soon because of limited control over iterator invalidation.
|
||
The current version is a full-fledged STL compliant container.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
Pavel Vozenilek did a thorough review of this version and came with many good
|
||
ideas and improvements.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
The idea of the space optimized circular buffer has been introduced by Pavel
|
||
Vozenilek.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
Also, I would like to thank Howard Hinnant, Nigel Stewart and everyone who
|
||
participated at the formal review for valuable comments and ideas.

||

Paul A. Bristow refactored the documentation in 2013 to use the full power
|
||
of Quickbook, Doxygen and Autoindexing.
