Hi,
I copied the necessary code to C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio
8\Common7\Packages\Debugger\autoexp.dat, and tried the following example
which is posted in the archives
http://lists.boost.org/boost-users/2007/06/28394.php , but it doesnot work
like the given sreenshot in the example. The information that is shown in
the watch windows is the same as before.
#define BOOST_MULTI_INDEX_LIMIT_INDEXED_BY_SIZE 5
#define BOOST_MULTI_INDEX_LIMIT_TAG_SIZE 3
#define BOOST_MULTI_INDEX_LIMIT_COMPOSITE_KEY_SIZE 5

using namespace boost::multi_index;
using std::wstring;
using namespace std;
struct test {
    wstring x;
    wstring y;
    test(wchar_t const *str, wchar_t const *str2=L"def") : x(str), y(str2)
{}
    bool operator<(test const& other) const {
        return x
typedef multi_index_container > > cont;
VISUALIZE_MULTI_INDEX_CONTAINER(cont);
int main() {
    cont test_cont;
    test_cont.insert(test(L"aaa"));
    test_cont.insert(test(L"aaa", L"other"));
    test_cont.insert(test(L"aac"));
    return 0; // see screenshoxt
}

I started using multi-index container, everything works fine, but I have
hard time when debugging my code with Visual Studio 2005.
The problem is I can't see the contents of the container when point my
mouse
to the container variable i.e I am seeing bunch of information that
needs to
be expanded, but can't see the actual elements in the container, for
example
like I can with std::vector.
Is there some way to do this ? thanks
You can try using the appropriate Visualizer:
https://svn.boost.org/svn/boost/sandbox/boost_docs/subprojects/DebuggerVisua...
IIRC, using visuzlizer for MI-container requires some additional code as
well.
