This is why I send the link to the 3rd edition.  :-P

To quote Amazon.com:
"In this brand-new third edition of The C++ Programming Language, author
Bjarne Stroustrup, the creator of C++, presents the full specification for
                                                    ----------------------
the C++ language and standard library, a spec that will soon become the
-------------------------------------
joint ISO/ANSI C++ standard."
