GHashTable insertion problems

["edwardt" <edwardt@xxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I have problems in doing insertions into my GHashTable

 

Lets say I have my table

 

Class Foo{

GHashTable *table;

}

 

foo::foo(){

table = g_hash_table_new(g_str_hash, g_str_equal);

}

 

 

I have functions like

 

Foo::update(Address *addr, MyObj *obj){

g_hash_table_insert(table, (char*)addr->toString().c_str(), obj);

 

}

 

and in another function

 

Foo::dostuff(){

 

update(addr1, obj1);

update(addr2, obj2);

 

}

 

Each time I call update, it changes the hash table so that lets say addr1->toString().c_str() gave “helloaddress” first, the second time I call it, where it becomes “byebyeaddress” (addr2….), the items in the hash table change.

 

It seems like the hash table just copies pointers – is that true? If so, how else can I modify this so I can store the correct key and values, without concern that the keys and values will change outside of modifying the hash table?

 

Thanks.
