Annoying warning

Have you tried casting the result:
bool name_exists = static_cast<bool>(map.find(name) != map.end());

Try using 'Bool' instead (uppercase B). If I remember correctly, the C4D
Bool datatype is the same as Int32, thus you get the warning from
converting an integer value to a native C++ bool. -

I have tried both of these.
Still getting it. -

Yeah, nevermind my comment. I misread and thought you were using a maxon::HashMap, not std::map.
The latter will certainly not return "Bool" from any function. Not sure where the error comes from then. -

This is a bit more explicit but may remove the performance warning:
bool name_exists = (map.find(name) != map.end())?true:false;

Or just disable the warning in the compiler settings.

Hi,
I certainly wouldn't suggest to disable any compiler warning. After all that's begging for bugs...
After looking at your three lines of code posted in the beginning, I don't think, the warning belongs to these lines. As Niklas already pointed out, you are not using any Bool in there. Actually I'm wondering, why you aren't using the C4D datatypes? There is a HashMap in the SDK as well. At least I'd try not to mix those types and have a clear line between C4D datatypes and any other datatypes, when using external libs. So you can keep casting to a minimum and don't need to think about datatype conversion all over the place. -

Oh I certainly would with MSVC. I think my favourite useless warning is C4127.
And by the way, the Cinema 4D API and SDK Project has quite a bunch of MSVC warnings disabled
by default as well. -

It could be the std::map with the String as key value because the C4D String class may not correctly support the comparison function object used by the map. Do you still get the same if you use a std::string instead?
The != check will return a compatible bool, so this cannot be it.

Thank you for your answers.
To reproduce the warning, copy paste these 3 lines in any project.
I will use C4D data structures.
