multiset example

I can't find a clear example showing me how to use multiset with a
custom compare function.
(like here: http://www.codeproject.com/vcpp/stl/setandmap.asp - I have
no idea why they have the 'struct gtrst', and why the set is than
initialized 'set<char gtstr*,> setString2')...

My problem is simple - I have a simple class

class CMember
{
int fitness;
int somedata[1000];
....
};

I want to have a multiset that keeps members sorted according to
fitness. How to do it in a simple, self-explaining way?

Hope this helps...
class CMember
{
private:
int fitness;
public:
CMember(int n)
{
fitness = n;
}

bool operator < (const CMember& refParam) const
{
return (this->fitness < refParam.fitness);
}
};
int main()
{
CMember o1(2), o2(3), o3(4);

multiset<CMember> myset;
myset.insert(o1);
myset.insert(o2);
myset.insert(o3);
}

the trick is to override the < operator, which is used by stl for
comparing contents of a container

If you insert equal values into a multiset is it specified what order they will have in the multiset. For instance, what should be the output of this program, is it defined? #include <set> #include <iostream> int main() { std::multiset<int> m;

I'm trying to use an object in two different multiset containers, each with it's own sort method. For the most frequently used, I overrode the operator< method in the class, and for the second I wrote a method LocationSort(). I can't seem to arrive upon the correct syntax for defining a multiset that will use LocationSort. ...

Hi, I was looking at the MultiSet STL structure with some "less" keyword. I was told that we can use the "MultiSet" STL structure to automatically sort the content. Is it possible to store and Sort CLASS objects based on a class variable value in it . i.e. multiset <Event, less<Event> > _queue;

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
