stl:map
Hi Folks! I am trying to overwrite the values in an stl:map if certain cretria matches. Can anyone show how to do that??
I have a map<string,time_t>
if the key matches with a given constant then I replace the value of that key with new value.
Suppose the map contains
aol 120102
msft 548710
......
if I iterate through the map and see that aol is there then check its value if its >1000 then I change aol's value to 2000.
If there is no aol then I insert aol with a value of 1000.
TIA.
Please reply ASAP

Edited text of question.
Homework?
can't you just do:
typedef map<string,time_t>::iterat or LI
for (LI i=somemap.begin(); i!=somemap.end(); i++)
{
if (somemap[key]==sometime)
somemap[key]=newtime;
}
isn't this in your reference book?

void foo(map<string,int>& m, int oldVal, int newVal, char*s key)
{
map<string,int>::iterator p = find(key);
if (p!=m.end()) { // key was found
if (p->second > oldVal)
p->second = newVal;
}
else { // not found
m.insert(make_pair(key, newVal));
}
}
{
map<string,int>::iterator p = find(key);
if (p!=m.end()) { // key was found
if (p->second > oldVal)
p->second = newVal;
}
else { // not found
m.insert(make_pair(key, newVal));
}
