I would say that the libraries in boost qualify as a good example of
reusable code for C++. <http://boost.org>
Due to the intersection between members of the C++ standars committee
and members of the boost community, many things have migrated from
boost to the C++ standard, if not in literal API, then certainly in
terms of concepts and strategies.

Someone upthread wrote that "reuseable code is define as code that can
be used without any code changes across many different unrelated
applications"[sic].?
That was me, reuseable is an industry term means no source code changes, if
you change the source and integrate it into another product it is called
"salvage code", which has major implications as far as (re)testing is
concern. Almost all code in industry is salvage mainly because, in my
experience, any feature of reuseable code which is not perfect typically
results in the rejection of the entire software package. You can't do this
in hardware design, because most don't have fab shops in their basement.
