I am creating vector of pairs and want to check whether given key is present or not within vector. I am trying to use std::find_if but seems it is not working. Can someone help me if I am doing something wrong in my code or any other approach to do find element for a given key?
std::vector < std::pair < int, char >> myVec;
pair < int, char > p1 = make_pair(1, 'a');
pair < int, char > p2 = make_pair(2, 'b');
pair < int, char > p3 = make_pair(3, 'c');
myVec.push_back(p1);
myVec.push_back(p2);
myVec.push_back(p3);
auto it = std::find_if(myVec.begin(), myVec.end(), [](const std::pair < std::string, int > & element) {
return element.first = 1;
});
if (it == myVec.end()) {
cout << "not found\n";
}
In above code, I want to find pair whose key is 1. and I am getting exception.
Exception:
$g++ -o main *.cpp
main.cpp: In lambda function:
main.cpp:19:123: error: passing ‘const std::__cxx11::basic_string<char>’ as ‘this’ argument discards qualifiers [-fpermissive]
auto it = std::find_if(myVec.begin(),myVec.end(),[](const std::pair<std::string, int>& element){ return element.first=1;} );

It appears to be a simple typo. You declared your vector as std::vector<std::pair<int, char>>
but the lambda expression you used takes const std::pair<std::string, char>&
. Just change the std::string
to int
and it should be fine.
Edit: Also the = 1
should be == 1
as Borgleader noted.
std::vector < std::pair < int, char >> myVec; ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Elements of your vector are std::pair < int, char >
.
auto it = std::find_if(myVec.begin(), myVec.end(), [](const std::pair < std::string, int > & element) { ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Your lambda accepts references to std::pair < std::string, int >
. Such a reference cannot bind to an object of type std::pair < int, char >
. That's what the compiler says here:
no known conversion for argument 1 from 'std::pair<int, char>' to 'const std::pair<std::__cxx11::basic_string<char>, int>&'
To fix this, use an argument type that matches with the type of the element.
Furthermore, your lambda tries to modify the object through the const reference. This is ill-formed. You may have intended to use the comparison operator instead.
