How can I make the map::find operation case insensitive?

Question

Does the map::find method support case insensitive search? I have a map as follows:

map > directory;
<         


        

Answer 1

I use the following:

bool str_iless(std::string const & a, 
               std::string const & b)
{
    return boost::algorithm::lexicographical_compare(a, b,  
                                                     boost::is_iless());
}
std::map 
         > case_insensitive_map(&str_iless);
