Huh? vector::at() is boundary-checked. So you can choose whether you want to pay for boundary-checking or not.

You can't switch between .at() and [] between two builds. There is a lot to be said about MSVC's checked iterators, but it sure does catch a lot of mistakes during debug builds. Any sane STL implementation should have something similar.

FYI, with libstdc++ (GCC) you can define _GLIBCXX_DEBUG and get a lot of runtime checks too, including bounds checking on vectors.
