no matching function for call to ‘ ’

Here’s the definition of my class:

class F1Team {
    private:
        string name;
        string racer1;
        string racer2;

    protected:
        int titles;
    
    public:
        F1Team(string tnm) {
            name = tnm;
            titles = 0;
            
        }
        void set_racer1(string r1) {
            racer1 = r1;
        }
        void set_racer2(string r2) {
            racer2 = r2;
        }
        void display() {
            cout<< name<< endl;
        }
};

I want to store class objects mapping to an int (i.e., <int, [class]>)

Here’s my code to implement it:

int main() {
    map<int, F1Team> mp;
    for (int i=0; i<3; ++i) {
        
        F1Team t {"Mercedes"};
        mp.insert(pair<int , F1Team>(i, t));
    }

    for (auto itr = mp.begin(); itr != mp.end(); ++itr) {
        (*itr).second.display();
    }
    mp[1].display();
    return 0;
}

The code throws compilation error when I try to access the object by key.

I don’t understand why the constructor to my class is being called here.

>Solution :

mp[1] promises to to default-construct a F1Team object, in case none currently exists with the key 1.

Since your F1Team object can not be default-constructed, use mp.at(1) instead. std::map::at will throw if the key is not present.
