[SOLVED] QMap and QVector2D not compatible
-
Hi,
Is there any way how to implement operator < for QVector2D?
QMap using operator < to check keys.@C:\Qt\Qt5.4.0\5.4\msvc2013_64_opengl\include\QtCore\qmap.h:67: error: C2678: binary '<' : no operator found which takes a left-hand operand of type 'const QVector2D' (or there is no acceptable conversion)

while trying to match the argument list '(const QVector2D, const QVector2D)'@I use QMap this way:
QMap<QVector2D, float> for Undo action in heightmap editing.
QVector2D - position
float - heightI sort QList values per key and choose first one, other just throw. I used QList and with every edit check if position is already edited, but it was very slow and now trying to figure out fast performance for this action. But seems QMap bit complicate it :/

Hi,
Rather than QList, you can use QVector which might be faster.
As for your original problem you would have to provide your implementation of
@bool operator<(const QVector2D &v1, const QVector2D &v2)@
in order to work with QMap
-
Yes but this implementation should be inside of QVector2D or in QMap? And do I need edit source code or can I write it in some header file like QDataStream operators <<, >>?
-
No, it doesn't need to.
Put it where you are using your QMap
-
Nice, works

Good, then please update the thread title prepending [solved] so other forum users may know a solution has been found :)
