I'd definitely prefer 'stdext::hash_map&lt;&gt;' over MFC's CMap if you explicity want a hash table.

Hi All,<br />
<br />
I am looking for a fast data structure in c++. &nbsp;I am currently storing data in a vector&lt;CString&gt; however any time I need to find a value I must traverse the entire vector until I find the specific value I am looking for. &nbsp;In C# I am able to use a Hashtable to access the specific element I am looking for instantly, without traversing. &nbsp;Does something like this exist in c++. &nbsp;I have been playing around with stdext::hash_map&lt;&gt; but am not sure if it is my best option. &nbsp;Not sure that it isn't either, but I am sort of a novice when it comes to c++ so I wanted to see if there was a better option.<br />
<br />
As always, thanks in advance for any help!<br />

Hi All,

I am looking for a fast data structure in c++.  I am currently storing data in a vector<CString> however any time I need to find a value I must traverse the entire vector until I find the specific value I am looking for.  In C# I am able to use a Hashtable to access the specific element I am looking for instantly, without traversing.  Does something like this exist in c++.  I have been playing around with stdext::hash_map<> but am not sure if it is my best option.  Not sure that it isn't either, but I am sort of a novice when it comes to c++ so I wanted to see if there was a better option.

Hashtable equivalent in MFC C++

Development in most programming languages is frequently done with an editor or integrated development environment (IDE). An IDE is a software application that provide comprehensive facilities to computer programmers for software development. An IDE normally consists of a source code editor, build automation tools and a debugger. XCode, Visual Studio, Adobe Dreamweaver and Eclipse are some of the more popular development tools, but an editor or IDE can be anything from simple text editors to sophisticated programs.

Kernel and system programming is the process of creating the software necessary for a computer or device to function and operate other programs. Some operating systems (such as Microsoft Windows) are proprietary, but others, such as the various Linux distributions, are open source.
