Hi,

I have the hashmap

maxon::HashMap<Int32, LineChangeInterval *> lineChangeIntervals;

If I try to add entries using FindOrCreateEntry like

maxon::HashMap<Int32, LineChangeInterval *>::Entry *e = lineChangeIntervals.FindOrCreateEntry(hash, created);

I get the compiler error C2228: left of '.ConstructHashMapEntry' must have class/struct/union in file hashmap.h line 498 (VS 2013)

that is:      e = constructor.ConstructHashMapEntry(e, key);

What am I missing? If I use FindEntry() and Put() it compiles without errors.

Thanks for your help.

Hello,

we got word from the developers on this. Since HashMap is part of the "maxon" namespace it expects a "maxon::Bool" and not a "Bool" value for "created":

  
typedef maxon::HashMap<Int, String> IntStringMap;  
IntStringMap map;  
  
maxon::Bool created = false;  
IntStringMap::Entry* e = map.FindOrCreateEntry(42, created);  
  
if(e)  
{  
  // do something  
}  

best wishes,
Sebastian
