Using STL map<...>

[Rostrox]

Hello: I built a map<...> in the way showed below. After running program, I do not know if data was loaded correctly. To verify this, I wanted to use "cout", but I do not know how to reference, for example, to the content of dMonto[3] that is in mpCont. Is there a charitable codeguru soul by there? Thanks in advance!!!! #include #include #include #include using namespace std; const int tam=10; struct stTot { string stLey; double dMonto[tam]; }; stTot myTot; map mpCont; int main() { myTot.stLey = "Text one"; for(int i=0; i::iterator it = mpCont.find("one"); // I want to put the "cout" here return 0; } :-O :-O

The folowing should do the trick; cout << (*yourIterator).second << endl; -Ben On the topic of code with no error handling -- It's not poor coding, it's "optimistic" ;)

So far I've seen two examples using the syntax: (*iter).second to look at the content of a map. Is there something wrong with using the -> operator as in: iter->second Thanx

My STL book ("The C++ Standard Library: A Tutorial and Reference" by Nicolai Josuttis) tells that:

In some older environments, operator -> might not work yet for iterators

MSVC's STL implementation seems to be an "older environment", using (*iter).member is always safe.
