I'm looking for a C library that provides generic collection data structures such as lists, associative arrays, sets, etc. The library should be stable and well tested. I'm basically looking for something better than the crappy C standard library.
What C libraries fit this description?
EDIT: I'd prefer that the library was cross-platform, but failing that, anything that works on Mac/Linux.

Data Structures in C are used to store data in an organised and efficient manner. The C Programming language has many data structures like an array, stack, queue, linked list, tree, etc. A programmer selects an appropriate data structure and uses it according to their convenience.
The generic data structure library is a bunch of data structures that are designed and created in as generic a fashion as possible. Each data structure will contain its own basic memory management, be able to handle any object type, and hopefully constraint to strict algorithmic constraints.
JDSL is the Data Structures Library in Java. It is a collection of Java interfaces and classes that implement fundamental data structures and algorithms, such as: sequences, trees, priority queues, search trees, hash tables.
The pop and return external functions are provided with the argument stack library. The pop external functions are described below according to the data type of the value that each pops from the argument stack. The return external functions are described in Return functions for C.
if you are on linux, i would use GLIB. it provides all the helper libraries you would expect, plus its very well maintained and very active (always a +). the link above is straight to the section on data structures, but there is plenty of other things in GLIB so take a look around!
