Remove object pointer from a vector

Question

I know this post can be a duplicate but the answers I could find aren't clear.

std::vector<EWindow> windows;
void closeWindow(EWindow* window);

These are my functions, I would like to erase the pointer EWindow* from the vector windows .
C++ Remove object from vector explain how to remove object but not a pointer.

Answer 1

But you need to use vector of pointers to remove pointer. std::vector<EWindow*> windows; Code to remove pointer is from vector:

Declare your vector as vector of pointers:

std::vector<EWindow*> windows;

//...

void closeWindow(EWindow* window)
{
    //...
    auto RemoveIt = std::find(windows.begin(),windows.end(), window);
    if ( RemoveIt != windows.end() )
    {
        windows.erase(RemoveIt);
    }
    //...
}

Find element in vector then erase it from vector if it is there
