Hello

I'm trying to use multi_index with an ordered_non_unique index. My question is how can I perform a search like with "find(key)" and get all the elements that match that key. Since find only returns one element that match, and there can be several in the container.

Use equal_range. It returns a pair of iterators to begin and end of the equal range.

I've tried to iterate "count(key)" times with the iterator returned by find but doesn't seem to work. Is there a way to do this?
