how to typedef array of 4 char to be used in map template

so my first question is anytime you code a key as a structure you need code to tell it how to handle, format, compare that key ? is that right ?
Generally speaking, you haven't. However, in your scenario, you have to, because the key you need is the value stored inside the characters, not the reference to the struct.

second my data is big edian so DC F'10' lays out in storage 00000000 00000000 00000000 0000000A so the code shifts thngs back to little edian as int x = 10 would be A0000000 00000000 00000000 00000000
Kind of that. Note you actually don't even need the key being big-endian.

Ok thank you again I am at work now I will compile it afterwards I have another map with a key made up of few elements in a structure Had compile errors but I think if I do what you just did insert code in the the structure with a for lack of a better term dummy in-line call in the structure with the operator()() {}; I may be able to straighten it out a lot of this code I can use on the z/os mainframe so I am hoping outside of a few #ifdef _MSVC_ for the big Edian to little Edian conversion it will compile with the XL C\C++ compiler it too has a STL library thank you again

This
Quote:
procpointer->extsymcollector.insert({ exsympointer->SYMESDID, *exsympointer });
should be instead
procpointer->extsymcollector.insert({ exsympointer->SYMESDID(), *exsympointer });
"In testa che avete, Signor di Ceprano?" -- Rigoletto
That gives a error of type mismatch me thinks I need a == operator inside struct esdid to tell it how to do the insert I THINK ( because ) you are the expert anytime you try to insert a type struct the insert method needs to know how to compare therefore I think compare operators I.E == , < , >

That (probably) gives type mismatch because you declared the map this way
map
But you shouldn't do that. Instead you should declare it like
map

Did you try
procpointer->extsymcollector.insert(std::pair(exsympointer->SYMESDID(), *exsympointer ));
?

But you need the values of ESDID characters as key for the map. something like this could do the trick
struct ESDID
{
char c[4];
uint32_t operator()(){return ((c[0] << 24) | (c[1] << 16) | (c[2] << 8) | c[3]); };
};
//..
map m;
//..
syminfo s1;
m.insert( pair(s1.symesdid(), s1) );"In testa che avete, Signor di Ceprano?" -- Rigoletto
The complier was screaming for < operator so I give it what wants hope this works got a clean complie
const struct ESDID
{
char c[4];
uint32_t operator()() { return ((c[0] << 24) | (c[1] << 16) | (c[2] << 8) | c[3]); };
BOOL operator< (const ESDID x) const { return c < x.c; }
}; -

const struct ESDID
{
char c[4];
uint32_t operator()() { return ((c[0] << 24) | (c[1] << 16) | (c[2] << 8) | c[3]); };
BOOL operator< (const ESDID x) const { return c < x.c; }
};That compiles. However it is probably NOT what you want (both the key of the map and the
<operator use the address of thecarray). RunESDID e1, e2;
// init e1, e2 with the same content
e1.c[0] = e1.c[1] = e1.c[2] = e1.c[3] = 'A';
e2.c[0] = e2.c[1] = e2.c[2] = e2.c[3] = 'A';cout << std::boolalpha;
cout << "(e1 < e2) " << (e1 < e2) << "\n";
cout << "(e2 < e1) " << (e2 < e1) << "\n";and watch the resulting output. Can you spot the problem? You can do something like this:
struct ESDID
{
char c[4];
// overload of the cast operator
operator uint32_t () const { return ((c[0] << 24) | (c[1] << 16) | (c[2] << 8) | c[3]); };
};
//...
syminfo s1;
map m;
m.insert( pair(s1.symesdid, s1) );Note the key of the map uses the content of the
carray."In testa che avete, Signor di Ceprano?" -- Rigoletto

Alternatively you could use a union?
const struct ESDID
{
union
{
char c[4];
uint32_t i;
} x;
bool operator< (const ESDID e) const { return x.i < e.x.i; }
}; -
thanks richard I dont see in the map documentation when using the insert method with key of type struct '<' operator must be overloaded by the user
Actually there is (see std::map - cppreference.com[^]):
template<
class Key,
class T,
class Compare = std::less,
class Allocator = std::allocator>class map;
As it should be, because the
std::mapis a sorted container."In testa che avete, Signor di Ceprano?" -- Rigoletto
-
I understand the compare wont work correctly however what I dont see where the cast operator () is being used> Is dynamic cast used with pair i.e <> the same as the () operator ()

That’s not the way the map template is defined by Microsoft map Class | Microsoft Learn[^]
template<
class Key,
class T,
class Compare = std::less,
class Allocator = std::allocator>class map;
Microsoft:
template ,
class Allocator=allocator>>
class map;Do you see significant differences?

I see the third parameter to the template in microsoft docs is class traits in the cpp reference its class compare thank you

That's, you know, just a matter of naming... BTW, you are welcome.

this is just a general comment I thought MainFrame Assembler was Hard but being a C\C++ proficient coder is a very difficult skill to master as an aside just looked at the retrieval for the map class "AT" method it looks like if not found it generates an exception would of been a lot simpler if they gave back a bad return code Thank
