Ordering method for slice dictionary mapping

akovac

Hello,

Is it possible to supply metadata to slice dictionary declaration to specify ordering type. I would like to reuse Ice defined structures in my application, so I'm wondering if something like this is supported:

struct PriceKey {
int intPart;
int decPart;
};

["cpp:type:std::map<PriceKey, Data, std::greater<PriceKey> >"]
dictionary<PriceKey, Data> BidMap;
["cpp:type:std::map<PriceKey, Data, std::less<PriceKey> >"]
dictionary<PriceKey, Data> AskMap;

Thanks,
Alen

Hi Alen,

Welcome to our forums!

This custom mapping for dictionaries in C++ would be useful, however, I am not sure when we'll add it to our software.
