CMapStringToOb::Lookup

Returns a CObject pointer based on a CString value.

BOOL Lookup(
   LPCTSTR key,
   CObject*& rValue 
) const;

Parameters

  • key
    Specifies the string key that identifies the element to be looked up.

  • rValue
    Specifies the returned value from the looked-up element.

Return Value

Nonzero if the element was found; otherwise 0.

Remarks

Lookup uses a hashing algorithm to quickly find the map element with a key that matches exactly (CString value).
