My question is, how to check whether we insert a new key/value pair or overwrite the same key with new value if we use [] operator.

George_George wrote:

using [] could never tell us whether we insert new pair or overwriting an old pair

mapped_type& operator[](const key_type& _Keyval)
     {

I am so bad to express my idea and question.

Sorry my English is not very good. You mean there is no way to check whether insert a new element or overwriting existing element if we use [] operator?

When using mapvariable[somekey] = somevalue to insert into a map variable, how to check whether there is conflicting key value in the map in an elegant way?

// An empty map.
map<cstring,cstring> TempMap;

// If you lookup a for a key which is not present,
// it will create empty entry and return. It won't
// throw any error.
CString LookupKey = _T("key"); // Key which is not present.
CString Value = TempMap[LookupKey];

using find is the optimum solution to check existence, and using [] could never tell us whether we insert new pair or overwriting an old pair, all are correct understanding?
