  • Article

Provides a type-safe "wrapper" for objects of the pointer-map classes CMapPtrToPtr, CMapPtrToWord, CMapWordToPtr, and CMapStringToPtr.

template< class BASE_CLASS, class KEY, class VALUE >
class CTypedPtrMap : public BASE_CLASS

Parameters

  • BASE_CLASS

Remarks

When you use CTypedPtrMap, the C++ type-checking facility helps eliminate errors caused by mismatched pointer types.

Because all CTypedPtrMap functions are inline, use of this template does not significantly affect the size or speed of your code.
