Hashtable

[maroo]

Hi all,

Does anyone know if there is a hashtable class or something equivalent in
C++.

Thank you

The standard library includes a class template ( std::map ) that's
probably what you want.

If you mean in the standard library, then officially no. However, many
library providers supply a hash table implementation as an extension to the
standard library. For example, the Dinkumware implementation of the standard
library, which ships with VC++ and has recently been announced for Borland's
C++ builder, has a hash table implementation (several actually).

FYI, std::map isn't actually implemented as a hash.
