You don't have to "import" anything.  Compilers usually have built
in the stl, and all you have to do is to include the header files
you actually need.  For example, if you need a vector in a
specific file, you simply "#include <vector>" and that's it.  No
linking is required at build or run time, and no additional
compiler options.
