Like java has its API and everything extends from object. What about C++? Does everything derive from The Standard Library? I know the STL was integrated into the standard so is the standard equivalent to Object in Java? I can't find anything that really addresses this so I'd figure I'd ask.
Just curious.
Thanks in advance.

No, this is not Java. No, everything does not derive from the Standard Library.

No, C++ is a multi paradigm language. Java is strictly a OOP language. Their is not common base type in C++

Thanks jim. Very succinct. But could you expand a little on that? I wasn't comparing anything to Java. Just used it to explain better what I was asking.
