I have a struct to store info about persons and multi_index_contaider to store such objects
struct person
{
std::string m_first_name;
std::string m_last_name;
std::string m_third_name;
std::string m_address;
std::string m_phone;
person();
person(std::string f, std::string l, std::string t = "", std::string a = DEFAULT_ADDRESS, std::string p = DEFAULT_PHONE) :
m_first_name(f), m_last_name(l), m_third_name(t), m_address(a),
m_phone(p) {}
};
typedef multi_index_container ,
ordered_non_unique,
member,
member
persons_set;
operator< and operator<< implementation for person
bool operator<(const person &lhs, const person &rhs)
{
if(lhs.m_last_name == rhs.m_last_name)
{
if(lhs.m_first_name == rhs.m_first_name)
return (lhs.m_third_name < rhs.m_third_name);
return (lhs.m_first_name < rhs.m_first_name);
}
return (lhs.m_last_name < rhs.m_last_name);
}
std::ostream& operator<<(std::ostream &s, const person &rhs)
{
s << "Person's last name: " << rhs.m_last_name << std::endl;
s << "Person's name: " << rhs.m_first_name << std::endl;
if (!rhs.m_third_name.empty())
s << "Person's third name: " << rhs.m_third_name << std::endl;
s << "Phone: " << rhs.m_phone << std::endl;
s << "Address: " << rhs.m_address << std::endl;
return s;
}
Add several persons into container:
person ("Alex", "Johnson", "Somename");
person ("Alex", "Goodspeed");
person ("Petr", "Parker");
person ("Petr", "Goodspeed");
Now I want to find person by lastname (the first member of the second index in multi_index_container)
persons_set::nth_index<1::type &names_index = my_set.get<1();
std::pair::type::const_iterator,
persons_set::nth_index<1::type::const_iterator
n_it = names_index.equal_range("Goodspeed");
std::copy(n_it.first ,n_it.second,
std::ostream_iterator(std::cout));
It works great. Both 'Goodspeed' persons are found.
Now lets try to find person by a part of a last name:
std::pair::type::const_iterator,
persons_set::nth_index<1::type::const_iterator
n_it = names_index.equal_range("Good");
std::copy(n_it.first ,n_it.second,
std::ostream_iterator(std::cout));
This returns nothing, but partial string search works as a charm in std::set.
So I can't realize what's the problem. I only wraped strings by a struct. May be operator< implementation?
Thanks in advance for any help.
