I have an instance of ptr_map. I need to release an element

from the map and use it somewhere else...

Does

ptrmaptype::auto_type ptr = val.release(val.begin());

not work??

Then you can call ptr.release() to get the naked ptr.

Yes, it works, thanks for the help. I think that I started with auto_type, got compile error and moved to try other types. Now it works. Thanks again.
