std::map has a constructor which accepts iterator to the begin and the end of the range being inserted at construction time. You can use them to insert items at construction time. Good Luck, Ovanes On Fri, Jun 6, 2008 at 8:35 PM, Sean Farrow wrote:

Hi: Thanks for that, Can I fill a map up at construction withou using std::Map::Insert? Can I do this with Boost::MultiIndex? Sean.

Hi: I am in a situation where by I need to be able to query an associative container. I need to fill the container before querying. The key is an integer and the vlaue is a std::string. Can I construct boost::multiIndex so as to allow key/value pairs to be entered at construction time or should I just use std::map and write a function.

I'm not sure I'm getting your question, but certainly you can fill up a std::map with key/value pairs before querying it!

std::map m; m.insert(std::make_pair(0,"zero")); m.insert(std::make_pair(1,"one")); ... m.find(1);

What's it that you contend you can't do with a std::map but you can with a multi_index_container?

Hi: Can I use this in dllMain? And can I set a map variable to null?
