Sorting a list

[sheila11]

I am trying to use List from STL for the first time. I need to create a lost of stucts.

If I create a list of strings and use the sort method, the list items get arranged as per their values. What will happen if I use sort on a list made up of structs having multiple data items, of various types?

TIA,
Sheila

You need to add a comparison opperator to the struct

struct myStruct
{
int data;
char buffer[128];
int operator < (myStruct ms){
return ms.data<data;
}
}

do the same for all other comparison opperations.
