Message: [QUOTE="Sam, post: 3450592"] You can subclass it, and define an operator function. template<typename keyType, typename valType> class myMap : public std::map<keyType, valType> { public: myMap<keyType, valType> &operator()(keyType k, valType v) { (*this)[k]=v; return *this; }; }; You can initialize these objects as follows: myMap<int, int> z=myMap<int, int>()(3, 4)(5, 6); ... and so on. You can use these objects anywhere std::map is acceptable. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQBHvMUyx9p3GYHlUOIRAr9AAJ0Z1htKkfWKFdWGK/Qi6WDcGYNA3ACbB7mO 8LABhHnbT/QP8M2HfUwxzxM= =4zSY -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- [/QUOTE]
