Question 1:
How do I create my own map, which would allow me to check during
MyMap["aa"] = 10;
that values for "aa" can be from 0 to 5, so the above assignment
would print error message.
Question 2:
How do I prevent my map to be only 2 elements, "aa" and "bb", so
creation of new element "cc" would not be allowed.

What you seem to need is a "wrapper" for 'std::map'. Since your
own 'map' is not an extension of 'std::map' (you want to impose
limitations on 'std::map' contents, which means your map is not
a std::map in the pure OO sense, see LSP), you should consider
private inheritance and re-implementation of the interface with
pre- and post-conditions verified in your implementations.

It sounds to me like a map is totally inappropriate for your needs.
You should consider a different container or even no container at all.
You're using none of map's features.

Create a class that does range checking and automatically converts to
and from int, e.g. (untested code):
#include <map>
#include <string>
#include <exception>
template<typename T, T lower, T upper>
class RangeCheckedVal
{
T val_;
static T Validate( const T& val )
{
if( val < lower || val upper )
{
throw std::range_error( "Value out of range" );
}
return val;
}
public:
RangeCheckedVal( const T& val = lower )
: val_( Validate(val) )
{}
operator T() const { return val_; }
};
int main()
{
std::map<std::string, RangeCheckedVal<int,0,5 myMap;
myMap[ "aa" ] = 5; // ok
myMap[ "bb" ] = 10; // throws an exception
}
Question 2:

Make the map const. To do this, you'd need to initialize the class on
declaration somehow, e.g.:
template<class K, class V>
class MapInitializer
{
typedef std::map<K,VMap;
Map m_;
public:
operator Map() const { return m_; }
MapInitializer& Add( const K& k, const V& v )
{
m_[k] = v;
return *this;
}
};
const std::map<std::string,intmyMap
= MapInitializer<std::string, int>()
.Add( "aa", 9 )
.Add( "bb", 42 );
Of course, if the map is const, the [] operator won't work (outside the
initializer) since it inserts a key/value pair if one doesn't exist,
but std::map::find() is safer anyway.

}
Thank,
This is nice, but I think this way both "aa" and "bb" would have
same range. What I wanted, is somehow to overwrite assignment, and
check if "aa" then range is 0 to 5, if "bb" then range is 3 to 9
for example.

I will need more time to exercise this.

Then you'll probably want to implement your own class that encapsulates
a map (or some other data structure).
