如何使用const getters对std :: set进行排序

Question

我有一个std :: set容器,其元素是以下类的对象:

class LaneConnector {
public:

    const Lane* getLaneFrom() const {
        return From;
    }
    const Lane* getLaneTo() const {
        return To;
    }

private:

    Lane* From;
    Lane* To;
}

我的比较器功能如下:

struct MyLaneConectorSorter {
  bool operator() (LaneConnector * c, LaneConnector * d)
  {
      Lane* a = const_cast<Lane*>(c->getLaneFrom());
      Lane* b = const_cast<Lane*>(d->getLaneFrom());
      return (a->getLaneID() < b->getLaneID());
  }
} myLaneConnectorSorter;

现在,当我尝试对集合中的元素进行排序时:

//dont panic, the container just came through a const_iterator of a std::map :)
const std::set<LaneConnector*> & tempLC = (*it_cnn).second;
std::sort(tempLC.begin(), tempLC.end(), myLaneConnectorSorter);

从以下几行开始,我得到了一个疯狂的错误,如果你帮我解决这个问题,请感谢.谢谢:

Answer 1

首先,您不能对std :: set进行排序.它是一种排序结构,在构造或插入时进行排序.

其次,您可以std::set使用自己的排序仿函数构建一个,并且可以const_casts通过以下方式避免不必要的const pointers:

struct MyLaneConectorSorter {
  bool operator() (const LaneConnector* lhs, const LaneConnector* rhs) const
  {
    // you may want to put some null pointer checks in here
    const Lane* a = lhs->getLaneFrom();
    const Lane* b = rhs->getLaneFrom();
    return a->getLaneID() < b->getLaneID();
  }
};

并实例化这样的集合:

std::set<LaneConnector*, MyLaneConectorSorter> s(MyLaneConectorSorter());

或者,如果您想从不同的集合构造它,使用不同的顺序,

std::set<LaneConnector*> orig = ..... ;
....
std::set<LaneConnector*, MyLaneConectorSorter> s(orig.begin(), orig.end(), MyLaneConectorSorter());
