I'm trying to make a simple map to look up some data, but the results are coming out very strange:
#include "stdafx.h"
#include "atlstr.h"
#include <map>
enum InputTypes { Manual, Automatic, Assisted, Imported, Offline };
struct Params
{
int inputType;
const char* moduleName;
DWORD flag;
};
int _tmain()
{
std::map<CString, Params> options {
{ "Add", { Manual, "RecordLib", 0 } },
{ "Open", { Assisted, "ViewLib", 1 } },
{ "Close", { Imported, "EditLib", 2 } },
{ "Inventory", { Automatic, "ControlLib", 3 } },
{ "Report", { Offline, "ReportLib", 4 } }
};
for (std::map<CString, Params>::iterator iter = options.begin(); iter != options.end(); ++iter)
{
printf("Entry: %s ==> { %d, %s, %d }\n", (const char*)(iter->first),
iter->second.inputType, iter->second.moduleName, iter->second.flag);
}
return 0;
}
Output:
Entry: îþîþîþîþîþîþîþîþîþîþîþîþ[â0; t ==> { 0, RecordLib, 0 }
Entry: Close ==> { 3, EditLib, 2 }
Entry: Inventory ==> { 1, ControlLib, 3 }
Entry: îþîþîþîþîþîþîþîþîþîþîþîþCâ0# t ==> { 2, ViewLib, 1 }
Entry: Report ==> { 4, ReportLib, 4 }
As you can see, a couple of the CString values turned to garbage. But I don't see any reason why I couldn't create a map this way.
Is this a bug in the Microsoft Visual Studio 2013 compiler?
Is there something peculiar about my code that I'm missing?
############ Edit ##############
For those who think this is a problem with CString
, I re-wrote it with std::string
, and got worse output:
#include "stdafx.h"
#include "atlstr.h"
#include <map>
enum InputTypes { Manual, Automatic, Assisted, Imported, Offline };
struct Params
{
int inputType;
std::string moduleName;
DWORD flag;
};
int _tmain(int argc, _TCHAR* argv[])
{
std::map<std::string, Params> options{
{ "Add", { Manual, "RecordLib", 0 } },
{ "Open", { Assisted, "ViewLib", 1 } },
{ "Close", { Imported, "EditLib", 2 } },
{ "Inventory", { Automatic, "ControlLib", 3 } },
{ "Report", { Offline, "ReportLib", 4 } }
};
for (std::map<std::string, Params>::iterator iter = options.begin(); iter != options.end(); ++iter)
{
printf("Entry: %s ==> { %d, %s, %d }\n", iter->first.c_str(),
iter->second.inputType, iter->second.moduleName.c_str(), iter->second.flag);
}
return 0;
}
Output
Entry: ==> { 0, , 0 }
Entry: Report ==> { 4, , 4 }
Note that this does work on IDEOne
