Hi... I'm far from a master of STL, but I seem to be having some
odd behavior with a vector<unsigned int> that I'm using.
Basically, if I do this:  std::vector<unsigned int> vec;
unsigned int b = *(vec.begin()); I get a warning at the
assignment of b of type: warning C4267: 'initializing' :
conversion from 'size_t' to 'unsigned int', possible loss of
data  I'm using VS.NET 2003 with its regular STL (not STLPort).
I guess when creating a vector of unsigned int's, it's somehow
getting confused and thinking that it's a vector of size_t's? Is
this normal behavior? Should I be concerned? Will this warning
disappear if I start using STLPort (I'd rather not)? And if it's
unfixable, is a size_t the same size as an unsigned int on
Win32, Mac, and Linux? I'm trying to make sure my app stays
cross-platform.
