Cpp - Check if key exist in boost bimap

bimap, boost, c++

Solution

This is explained quite clearly in this example. In your case, it should look like this:

name_index_map your_map;
name_index_map::right_const_iterator it = your_map.by<Name>().find("some name");
if(it == your_map.right.end()) {
    // name does not exists
}

Problem

I have a bimap. I want to check if key exists in my bimap. How can i do that. Here is my bimap: ``` namespace bimap { struct Name{}; struct ID{}; typedef boost::bimaps::bimap< boost::bimaps::set_of< boost::bimaps::tagged< unsigned short , ID > >, boost::bimaps::set_of< boost::bimaps::tagged< std::string , Name > > > name_index_bimap; } ``` I want to check if 'Name' is exists.
