Created a boost::priority_queue with my comparison operation defined. Here
is how my priority_queue looks,
boost::heap::priority_queue max_heap;
My comparison is defined as,
struct myObjectPtrCompare{
bool operator()(const myObject* lhs, const myObject* rhs) const
{
return (lhs->getTime() < rhs->getTime());
}};
I have used it as,
myObject* obj1 = static_cast(base1);
'base1' is an object of class 'myBase'(base class of myObject)
myObject and getTime() within it used for comparision are defined as,
class myObject : public myBase {
Time getTime() const { return time; }... ...}
Compiling this gives me this error,
c:\Projects\pq_test.cpp(27): error C2662: 'void
boost::heap::priority_queue::push(myObject
*const &)' : cannot convert 'this' pointer from 'const
boost::heap::priority_queue'
to 'boost::heap::priority_queue
&'1> Conversion loses qualifiers
Using Visual Studio 2013 C++. I understand that I am doing something wrong
with const correctness, but I am not able to figure out what is wrong. Any
help is appreciated.
TIA!
