BOOL Lookup( LPCTSTR key, CObject*& rValue ) const;
Return Value
Nonzero if the element was found; otherwise 0.
Parameters
key
Specifies the string key that identifies the element to be looked up.
rValue
Specifies the returned value from the looked-up element.
Remarks
Lookup uses a hashing algorithm to quickly find the map element with a key that matches exactly (CString value).
Example
See CObList::CObList for a listing of the CAge class used in all collection examples.
// example for CMapStringToOb::LookUp
CMapStringToOb map;
CAge* pa;
map.SetAt( "Bart", new CAge( 13 ) );
map.SetAt( "Lisa", new CAge( 11 ) );
map.SetAt( "Homer", new CAge( 36 ) );
map.SetAt( "Marge", new CAge( 35 ) );
ASSERT( map.Lookup( "Lisa", ( CObject*& ) pa ) ); // Is "Lisa" in the map?
ASSERT( *pa == CAge( 11 ) ); // Is she 11?
