hmm... not really.. plethora of known problems here unless
u r careful (think speed of access.. ) if u can use then go
for BOOST library (C++).
Re-iterating the point .. Again this is for flexible
storage.. It has nothing to do with buffer overflow
problem. That is a coding issue.
Just as an eg., windows CRT in scanf, gets, uses a simple
algorithm. Allocate 4096 byte buffer array. Read inputs in
chunks of 4096 bytes and keep passing!
