Compatibiliy with MultiIndex library would be also helpful, to use this maps as multiindex internal maps, but I don't know if this is more an issue of MultiIndex mantainer.
Hola Ion, Main problem with having something like an assocvector index in Boost.MultiIndex is that indices are required to be node-based, while much of the power of an assocvector comes from its use of contiguous memory to achieve excellent performance. So I doubt the merge would be satisfactory. That said, I prompted some days ago about interest on a random-access index for the library. If I finally write this, it could be used as an implementation basis for an associative random-access index. On another topic, "compatibility with MultiIndex" amounts to rewriting the stuff: it is very difficult that common code can be shared between a container and its index counterpart.
