The program features a tiny // Spanish-English dictionary with online query of words in both languages. #include //[ code_mi_to_b_path_bidirectional_map #include #include #include using namespace boost::bimaps; // A dictionary is a bidirectional map from strings to strings typedef bimap dictionary; typedef dictionary::value_type translation; int main() { dictionary d; // Fill up our microdictionary. // first members Spanish, second members English. d.insert( translation("hola" ,"hello" )); d.insert( translation("adios","goodbye")); d.insert( translation("rosa" ,"rose" )); d.insert( translation("mesa" ,"table" )); std::cout << "enter a word" << std::endl; std::string word; std::getline(std::cin,word); // search the queried word on the from index (Spanish) dictionary::left_const_iterator it = d.left.find(word); if( it != d.left.end() ) { // the second part of the element is the equivalent in English std::cout << word << " is said " << it->second /*< `it` is an iterator of the left view, so `it->second` refers to the right element of the relation, the word in english >*/ << " in English" << std::endl; } else { // word not found in Spanish, try our luck in English dictionary::right_const_iterator it2 = d.right.find(word); if( it2 != d.right.end() ) { std::cout << word << " is said " << it2->second /*< `it2` is an iterator of the right view, so `it2->second` refers to the left element of the relation, the word in spanish >*/ << " in Spanish" << std::endl; } else { std::cout << "No such word in the dictionary" << std::endl; } } return 0; } //]
