CPP1117 — Add standardized annotation to override the IDL map to std::map mapping

  • Key: CPP1117-1
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: Remedy IT Expertise BV ( Johnny Willemsen)
  • Summary:

    For some use cases it would be more efficient to map a IDL map to a std::unordered_map (see https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/container/unordered_map), maybe standardize an annotation which can be used to override the mapping to std::map to the type as specified by the annotation?

  • Disposition Summary:

    Defer

    Other languages have similar issues like using TreeMap or HashMap in Java.

    Defer resolution on this until standard annotation can be provided in the IDL 4 spec or the IDL Working Group has a common approach to use across language mappings.
