Edit Question
Title
Body
I want to find in a vector of Object pointers for a matching object. Here's a sample code to illustrate my problem: class A { public: A(string a):_a(a) {} bool operator==(const A& p) { return p._a == _a; } private: string _a; }; vector<A*> va; va.push_back(new A("one")); va.push_back(new A("two")); va.push_back(new A("three")); find(va.begin(), va.end(), new A("two")); I want to find the second item pushed into the vector. But since vector is defined as a pointers collection, C++ does not use my overloaded operator, but uses implicit pointer comparison. What is the preferred C++-way of solutiono in this situation?
