A Safer STL Container Class

return (*((unsigned int*)((int)pBlock + 4)) == 0xfeedface);

Example Usage

CTidyMap<CElement, int>	mymap;
CElement* pElement[10];

for(int i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
 pElement[i] = new CElement(i);
 mymap.Add(pElement[i], i);
}

cout << "Number of elements in the map: " 
     << mymap.GetCount() << endl;

delete pElement[5];

cout << "Deleted Element number 5" << endl;
delete pElement[7];

cout << "Deleted Element number 7" << endl;

cout << "Still does not know about elements being deleted, size: " 
     << mymap.GetCount() << endl;

CElement* pExElem = mymap.GetFirst();
while(pExElem) {
 cout << "Found Element number: " 
      << pExElem->GetIndex() 
      << endl;

 pExElem = mymap.GetNext();
}

cout << "Now the number of elements in the map: " 
     << mymap.GetCount() 
     << endl;

Output

Number of elements in the map: 10
Deleted Element number 5
Deleted Element number 7
Still does not know about elements being deleted, size: 10
Found Element number: 0
Found Element number: 1
Found Element number: 2
Found Element number: 3
Found Element number: 4
Found Element number: 6
Found Element number: 8
Found Element number: 9
Now the number of elements in the map: 8

Bonus

CTidyMap<CElement, int>	mymap = false;
