So my question: just how can I grab an element's value from a multimap given it's key? I'm pretty much stumped here, so any help/suggestions/comments are very welcome! Thank you all!

getting arbitrarily located elements in a multimap
Author
I'm having trouble switching my code from using a map, to a multimap. I've never used a multimap before, so I'm having some stupid little problems.
My main concern, is simply how to get an element from the multimap given the element's key. Apparently, the class doesn't implement a [] operator, so I switched my code to this:
PotentialRepeatingSeg* repSeg = (_potentialRepeatingSegs.find(quotient))->second;
But, this just throws a few compiler errors which occur in the STL itself, not my own code, so I'm having quite some difficulty debugging them. Here's they are:
find, lower_bound, and upper_bound are probably what you want. They all return iterators. If whatever you looked for wasn't found, it should return the map's end iterator. Otherwise iterator->first should be the key you searched for, and iterator->second should be it's value.

I'm already using multimap::find() in this line:
PotentialRepeatingSeg* repSeg = _potentialRepeatingSegs.find(quotient)->second;
But it throws all of those errors. I'm assuming that it's not typical to get these errors when using multimap::find?
The value type is a typedef for a pair (typedef std::pair<int, int> PotentialRepeatingSeg;), could this have something to do with the errors?
Anyways, thanks for the reply.

From the very little info you've given us everything appears to be fine but these may give you some clues:
We need more info like what is the type of PotentialRepeatingSeg, is it a type alias for another pair because it seems like you have a multimap that maps integers to a pair of size_t & integer was that intended? and where is that code located, a constant member function?

An example:
Output:
#include <iostream>#include <string>#include <iterator>#include <map>int main() { typedef std::multimap<std::string, int> map_type; typedef map_type::iterator iterator; typedef map_type::value_type pair; map_type map; map.insert(pair("a", 1)); map.insert(pair("a", 2)); map.insert(pair("a", 3)); map.insert(pair("a", 4)); map.insert(pair("b", 5)); map.insert(pair("b", 6)); map.insert(pair("b", 7)); map.insert(pair("b", 8)); map.insert(pair("c", 9)); map.insert(pair("c", 10)); map.insert(pair("c", 11)); map.insert(pair("c", 12)); iterator i(map.find("b")); if(i == map.end()) std::cout << "Not found!" << std::endl; else { std::cout << i->first << " was " << i->second << std::endl; i->second = 42; std::cout << i->first << " is now " << i->second << std::endl; } std::cout << "All the values for b are: " << std::endl; for(iterator i(map.lower_bound("b")), end(map.upper_bound("b")); i != end; ++i) std::cout << i->second << std::endl; return 0; }Output:

Well, I already showed you the definition for PotentialRepeatingSeg in my second post. It's located in the global namespace, and no the function that the offending code is located in isn't const.
I could give you the full source, but that would be overkill and it's so convoluted right now it would do you no good.
What other information do you need?
I apologize if my question is naive, but I'm somewhat inexperienced with STL and totally inexperienced with multimap.

Thanks smart_idiot. I've figured it out. I don't think I was inserting the items properly. Not sure though. But either way, it works now.

Well i never saw it probably because we posted about the same time.
