Re: [Boost-users] [multi_key] problems using modify_key with a composite_key index

So, instead of using modify_key resort to plain modify instead:

c.get<1>().modify(c.get<1>().find(make_tuple(y,UINT_MAX)),&ll::_1->*&entry::m_x=startIter2->m_x);

Is your problem solved now?

This solved my compilation problem, but I ended up with an app than wants to runs forever. To be clear, I'm including my entire function. What it is supposed to do is reorder the x values of the composite_key index of the multi_index container based on the ordering of a vector<float> container. It is a swap_sort algorithm because its the only way that I've imagined how to do this. A better solution would definitely be entertained. void sortByBaryCenterValue(Positioner& p, BaryCenterVals& bcv,size_t y) { Positioner::XYIterator iter,iter_end; tie(iter,iter_end)=p.getXYIndex().equal_range(make_tuple(y)); for (size_t nStartIndex=0;nStartIndexm_x; advance(smallestIter,nSmallestIndex); size_t x2=smallestIter->m_x; p.getXYIndex().modify(p.getXYIndex().find(make_tuple(y,x1)),&ll::_1->*&Positioner::entry::m_x=UINT_MAX); // p.getXYIndex().modify(p.getXYIndex().find(make_tuple(y,x2)),&ll::_1->*&Positioner::entry::m_x=x1); p.getXYIndex().modify(p.getXYIndex().find(make_tuple(y,UINT_MAX)),&ll::_1->*&Positioner::entry::m_x=x2); } } If I uncomment the middle line of the sort attempt, the application runs forever. Do you know what is wrong? Thanks in advance.
