[Boost-users] [Q] does map.erase destroy shared_ptr ?

Hello, I am storing database streams as associated string tag as std::map< std::string, boost::shared_ptr > once in a while I need to remove a stream based on the tag, so I do //find stream based on tag //close stream s->close //call map.erase can I expect that once I call map erase the destructor of the stream will get called? (for some reason I do not see my trace statement of the destructor, but the stream destruction are unfamiliar code to me.. so I may be just doing something wrong). thank you, Vlad -- V S P toreason@fastmail.fm -- http://www.fastmail.fm - Faster than the air-speed velocity of an unladen european swallow
