[Boost-users] [Q] shared_ptr less than operator for std::set

Subject: [Boost-users] [Q] shared_ptr less than operator for std::set

I am trying to use shared_ptr in 
std::set and std::vector.  For std::set I was expecting that
when I define a less than comparasing operation in my class
(wrapped by shared ptr) -- it would actually get invoked.

Instead I think it is the less than of the shared_ptr that is being
invoked
So I do not get the ordering I expect in my std::set container.

Therefore wanted to ask -- how can it be done, that the
operator.< of my class and not the shared_ptr's is being used by
std::set

I searched for posting on this subject but did not come up with the
solution.
Only discussions about the details of pointer comparasing
