Detailed Description

template<class KeyType, class DataType>
class vtkAbstractMap< KeyType, DataType >

a dynamic map data structure

vtkAbstractMap is a an abstract templated superclass of all containers that implement map data structure.

Map data structure is a one dimensional set of pairs. Each pair contains a key and associated data. On the higher level, it implements mapping from key values to data elements. It can be implemented using array of pairs, hash table, or different trees.
