I think he just needed a container which he could use do lookups, but didn't use that term. He probably needs a map, and the standard container library has those. The standard library is already showing up in gcc releases (it was included in gcc 4.0). There's also a reference implementation of the library. So availability shouldn't be an issue. -Matt
