How to pass a structure to a STL map?

Question

typedef struct
{
    pthread_t threadId;
    int       acceptSocketD;
    char      *message;
} threadData;

map <unsigned int, threadData> serverPortNumberThreadId;
map <unsigned int, threadData> :: iterator serverPortNumberThreadIdIter;

usage:

threadData obj; 
obj.threadId      = 0;
obj.acceptSocketD = 0;
obj.message       = "Excuse Me, please!";

serverPortNumberThreadId.insert (3490, obj);

error:

error: no matching function for call to ‘std::map<unsigned int, threadData>::insert(int, threadData&)’

You need to insert the value into map:

serverPortNumberThreadId.insert ( std::make_pair( 3490, obj) );

For other ways to insert into map, see the map::insert() reference page.
