Hello,

As far as I know, maps are transparent wrt the keys and values stored.
I am trying to maintain a map with pointers to member functions. If I access
the members through normal pointers, all is Ok. But if I use the dictionary,
it seems it is not properly initialized.

Any hint?

#include <iostream.h>
#include <map.h>

typedef char* string;

class Test {
    typedef int  (Test::* pGetM) ();
public:
    int a1;
    int geta1   () {return a1;};

public:
    Test (int a): a1(a) {};
};

main ()
{
    Test t (5);

    Test::pGetM f = Test::geta1;

    map<string, Test::pGetM, less<string> > mapMethods;
    mapMethods["a1"]  = f;

    cout << "Attribut = " << t.a1 << endl
  << "By map   = " << (t.*f)() << endl;

    cout << "Attribut = " << t.a1 << endl
  << "By map   = " << (t.*mapMethods["a1"])() << endl;
}

You are comparing pointers instead of strings. Add

  struct less<string>
  {
 bool operator()(string a, string b) { return strcmp(a, b) < 0; }
  };

and it will work.
