There's not VS2006. You probably mean VC6 (which, IIRC, was released in
1998).

Your code never really "worked". Your particular usage patten might have
worked by accident. Try this in your VC6:

#include <map>
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main()
{
 char forInsert[] = "abc";
 char forLookup[] = "abc";

 typedef map<const char*, int> M;
 M m;
 m.insert(M::value_type(forInsert, 42));

 M::iterator f = m.find(forLookup);
 cout << (f != m.end() ? "Found" : "Not found") << endl;

 return 0;
}

With sufficient thrust, pigs fly just fine. However, this is not
necessarily a good idea. It is hard to be sure where they are going to
land, and it could be dangerous sitting under them as they fly
overhead. -- RFC 1925
