CAdapt and my current experience

[ross...@hotmail.com]

Hi all,

I am using STL in containers like:

std::vector< CComBSTR >
std::vector< CComPtr >
std::map< CComBSTR, CComPtr >
and so on

Until now I have not reach any problems with that. But I have read
recently on this list that I have to use "CAdapt", when I want to store
spart pointers in STL containers. But as I said, I have not had any
problems yet.

So my question is: Am I have to use "CAdapt" when storing smart pointers
after all. Right now I only store\search for items in the containers.

Cheers

According to the C++ standard, you must use CAdapt with classes that
overload operator& (both CComPtr and CComBSTR do). Depending on the
implementation and the exact container you use, you are more or less
likely to run into problems in practice. For examples of such problems,
