Is there a free Class Library out there which is
portable from one C++ implementation to another?

I'm looking for something like a bunch of data
structures which have already been implemented
in such a way that I can just include them and
start using them.  I want to be able to define my
own objects, and throw them into fully debugged
linkedlists, stacks, trees, etc!  Turbo C++ v1.0
has something just like this, but I can't seem to
take things I write with it and port them to Gnu's
G++ compiler... It's not the fact that the code is
unportable; it's the fact they have some already
compiled object library called: classlib.lib  which
of course won't port from a PC archictecture to 
a Unix one.  In truth, the ideal situation would
be to port Turbo C++ v1.0's Class Libraries to
Gnu G++.  Can anyone help me with that?

Since this may be an impossibility, is there an ftp site
I can goto to and get such a libraray and compile it myself?

I would think that such a thing exists, since
one of the goals of the language is to re-use
code!  But, hey...I might be wrong.   :-)

Thanks for your help.
