Question

I know that a map destructor calls each of the contained element’s destructors. What happens for a

map<char*,char*> ?

I cannot see where this code is in /usr/include/c++/4.4

EDIT:
I should have said

map<const char*, const char*, ltstr>

like in

What happens

Nothing. If you dynamically allocated memory, it’ll leak – there’s no automatic destructor for char*.

Use std::string or similar class instead.
