I'm pretty new in boost and I am experimenting an issue I can't understand. It looks like the usage of "replace()" modifies the iterator I am iterating on:
Here is a simple example:
it iterates properly if I do:
Iterator it2, it3; boost::tuples::tie(it2, it3) = m_Container.get< CollectionID
().equal_range( 30 );
while( it2!= it3 ) { int time = it2->TCoord; if( time < 500 ) // we want to change the collection ID in this case { Structure tempStructure(*it2); tempStructure.CollectionID = 40; * //m_Container.get< CollectionID >().replace(it2, tempStructure); comment this line* } ++it2; }
whereas if I call "replace()" the iterator value changes to "it3" then it exists the loop: <snip>
the replace() method returns true.
I must be missing something but after reading the documentation and some researches on the web I couldn't find the answer.
Any help/explanation would be greatly appreciated,
The position of the element can change when you change the key. The iterator continues to point to the same element, but the element has moved. In Christ, Steven Watanabe
