[SOLVED] C++ operator== with shared_ptr and glm::vec3

lnxsurf · 2017-03-04 12:50:00

Hello I have a problem to compile the following code. It seems to me strange why the compiler does not accept my code:

bool operator==(const std::shared_ptr<glm::vec3> &v0, const glm::vec3 v1) {
	return *v0 == v1;
}

bool operator==(const glm::vec3 v0, const std::shared_ptr<glm::vec3> &v1) {
	return v0 == *v1;
}

TEST (smartPointersAndOperators, OperatorEquals2) {
	std::vector<std::shared_ptr<glm::vec3>> allAs {
		std::make_shared<glm::vec3>(),
		std::make_shared<glm::vec3>(),
		std::make_shared<glm::vec3>()};
	glm::vec3 obj;
	auto it = std::find(allAs.cbegin(), allAs.cend(), obj);
}

The compile error is

Please, I need help...

Next time, please post a minimal example with headers and a main function for others to test your code. Posting error messages without the matching code and line numbers just makes it harder for others to help.

Searching for "std::find" and "no match for ‘operator==’" quickly turns up a relevant Stack Overflow thread: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7287 … y-operator

Working example using find_if:

#include <iostream>
#include <vector>
#include <memory>

#include <glm/glm.hpp>

bool
