multimap support for unique_ptr

kingjsegmail_com · ‎05-11-2015

i am trying to build a multimap with unique_ptr and i am getting strange compilation errors in Linux

Example Code:

#include <iostream>
#include <memory>
#include <map>

using namespace std;

class Event {
public:
    Event (double time) : _time(time) {}
    double getTime () const { return _time; }
private:
    Event (Event const & e);
    void operator= (Event const &e);
    double _time;
};

class Calendar {
public:
    void addEvent (std::unique_ptr<Event> e) {
        double t = e->getTime(); // get time before trying the next line
        _events.insert(move(make_pair (t, move(e)))); // insert into multimap
    }
private:
    multimap <double, unique_ptr<Event>> _events;
};

int main () {
    unique_ptr<Event> e (new Event(1.0));

    Calendar c;
    c.addEvent (move(e));
}

above code compiles in OSX 10.10 with icpc 15.0.2 20150121

However, linux is another story:

% /opt/intel/bin/icpc --version && cat /etc/redhat-release && /opt/intel/bin/icpc main.cpp -std=c++11 -o main && ./main
icpc (ICC) 15.0.2 20150121

compilation aborted for main.cpp (code 2)

clearly the pair is trying to copy and this is triggering the error. i have tried this all kinds of different ways and still can't get it to compile in linux. suggestions? i would think icpc would support unique_ptr with multimap right?

thanks!

Hi,

I can build the code with gcc 4.6.0, gcc 4.7.0, gcc 4.7.2, gcc 4.8.1, gcc 4.9.0...It failed with gcc 4.1.2, but not the same error as you have.

I'd suggest you to upgrade to a newer gcc version, as the code required C++11 support, older gcc may not support these features.

You may also verify whether the code built with your gcc (4.4.7) itself, it not, you have to upgrade your GCC (headers).

Let me know if it works.

Thanks,

Shenghong
