Question

I’m trying to iterator through a map object using the following chunk of code:

for(map<int, vector>::iterator table_iter = table.being(); table_iter != table.end(); table_iter++)
{
    ...
}

And I keep getting errors telling me:

conversion from const_iterator to non-scalar type iterator requested

And I can’t seem to determine why the iterator would be const vs. not-const, or how to deal with this.

Answer 1

Use map<int, vector>::const_iterator instead which is returned by map::begin.
