so I have a Date Class, and each Date object stores a day, month, and year variable for the object. I also have a data file with multiple dates, many duplicate dates, and all with their own value for a float.
I am trying to store all my dates into a multimap as the key, so i can have all my duplicate dates with their floats in there too. My goal, is that I want a user to be able to enter a month and a year, and then I search my map for values with that month and year in the date object, and return the speeds for those objects. However, I get this error:
error: no matching function for call to 'make_pair(Date&, float)'|
for this declaration
mapOption1.insert(make_pair<Date, float>(windlog[x].d, windlog[x].speed.GetSpeed()));
I don't understand why, as when I use windlog[x].d (where windlog is a vector of a struct, and d is the date object it holds at position x) in Binary Search Tree, I did not need a Get Method to store the objects in the BST. Why would I need it now? Assuming that is the issue.
Here is the code with my problem:
multimap<Date, float> mapOption1;
for(int x = 0; x < SIZE; x++)
{
mapOption1.insert(make_pair<Date, float>(windlog[x].d, windlog[x].speed.GetSpeed()));
}
Minimal reproducible example:
multimap<Date, float> mapOption1;
Date datetest;
datetest.SetDay("20");
datetest.SetMonth("3");
datetest.SetYear("2014");
for(int x = 0; x < SIZE; x++)
{
mapOption1.insert(make_pair<Date, float>(datetest, 47.5);
}
