    How CList Find struct

    Hello ,

    I try to find the structure which is in the clist [mfc]

    Code:
    Struct sentence
    { 
     int id;
     CString name;
    };
    
    CList<sentence>sentenceinfo ;
    
    sentence sRec1;
    sRec1.id = 10;
    sRec1name = "LONG"
    sentenceinfo.addTrail(sRec1);
    
    sentence sRec2;
    sRec1.id = 20;
    sRec1name = "SHORT"
    sentenceinfo.addTrail(sRec2);
    
    here I want to check whether the id and name are existing in the structure.
    
    sentence tmpRec:
    tmpRec.id = 10;
    tmpRec.name = "SHORT "
    
    For example
    Is it possible to check like this
    If(sentenceinfo.Find(tmpRec ) == NULL)
        sentenceinfo.AddTrail(tmpRec);
    else
       Already exist.
    Since I don't have system I could not check and on the way to my office. If you could suggest me on this, It will be useful.

    Thank you

    If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
    If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.

    what i did was
    Code:
    sentence tmpRec;
    tmpRec.id = 10;
    
    tmpRec.name = "LONG";
    
    
     If(sentenceinfo.Find(tmpRec ) == NULL)    sentenceinfo.AddTrail(tmpRec);
    else
       Already exist.
    
    I need to include the comparison operator overloading in the structure.
    
    struct sentence
    
    {
       int id;
     CString name;
       bool operator==(const sentence Scode) const
            {
                if (nId == Scode.nId && strName == Scode.strName)
                    return TRUE;
                else
                    return NULL;
            }
    
    
    }
