Thread: Remove element from STL list

Hello,
please, I need to have a list of objects that are frequently inserted and removed.
That's why I decided to use STL list.
However, I have problems removing elements from the list.
For example this code won't compile:

Code:

#include <iostream>
#include <list>
#include <string>

using namespace std;

struct Klijent
{
	string ime;
};


int main()
{
	Klijent k;
	k.ime="Name";

	list<Klijent>lista;

	lista.push_back(k);

	lista.remove(k);
}

One way to slove this is to use iterators:

Code:

for (it = lista.begin(); it != lista.end(); ++it)
{
	if (it->ime == "Name")
	{
		lista.erase(it);
	}
}

but, this gives me an exception. I don't know what is wrong.
I wonder if there is a clever way to do this?
There's been a while since I used STL and I almost forget it.
Thanks in advance.
