Character Array as a value in C++ map

Question

I want to define something like

Map myMap;

The above declaration is accepted by c++ compiler and no error is thrown bu

Answer 1

I understand your performance requirements (since I do similar things too), but using character arrays in that way is rather unsafe.

If you have access to C++11 you could use std::array. Then you could define your map like:

map > myMap;

If you cannot use C++11, then you could use boost::array.
