Subject: [Boost-users] multi index container
From: Dejan (xamiw_at_[hidden])

Hi all,

I have to store pointer of type (let's say) "employee" in a
multi-index-container:

struct employee
{
  employee(int id):id(id){}
  int id;
};

Further I have to check if every id is unique:

employee* e0 = new employee(1);
employee* e1 = e0;
employee* e2 = new employee(1);
employee* e3 = new employee(2);

my_multi_index_conatiner.insert(e0); // OK
my_multi_index_conatiner.insert(e1); // BAD
my_multi_index_conatiner.insert(e2); // BAD
my_multi_index_conatiner.insert(e0); // OK

Can someone tell me how a typedef of a multi_index_container fullfilling
prerequisities above looks? Or is a multi_index_container not the right
tool?
I've tried with a method in struct employee which returns the
this-pointer. But this-pointer is const const and useless for my
problem.

Thanks in advance!
