C++ as a language is very complex, that's where lies its beauty but everything is not built into the C++ standard library.
Multi threading and network programming are amongst the most missed components.
Some even suggest replacing C++ standard STL components with external libraries, most notable among those are "Boost C++ library".
This is a library designed by programmer, most of them are on the C++ standards committee, so there are great chances of the Boost components getting merged in C++0X standard.
Using Boost also gives the advantage of being platform independent so rather than worrying about porting your multi threaded code, you can now concentrate on better code architecture.
