I'm searching for documents (to work in info and/or man as well as somethin to dump into /usr/share/doc/)

: PHP
: Perl
: C++ (I cannot find info about for instance basic_string)

I definitely want full references, not just HOWTO's or basics.
I want to lookup any function or class of any of those languages using man or info.

Then install the docs from your distribution. It's all there, search the man pages like this:

man -k {keyword}

Also, subscribe to your distro's mailling list and see where the developpers meat at (usually on a IRC channel of a developper orientated web site), you'll find lot's of information within the collective

the docs from the distro is installed. i've installed all the manuals and docs but didn't get much.
I still don't have perl reference except for add-ons like mysql and the DBI object.
I still don't get any reference for c++ i've tried man -f (apropos?) basic_string but it doesn't get anything.
I only got a PHP reference and manual working in the /usr/share/doc/ dir.

Where can I download all these stuff.
