c++ - Calling member function of an object inside a vector -

this continuation on previous question here regarding retrieving , editing private members of objects in vector.

i have vector full of objects have private members need access. i have created accessor functions returning each private member , looking best way iterate through vector of objects, returning specific private member , comparing given variable until match found.

i have considered using find_if have had no luck using member functions return value, each object in vector, criteria.

neither have been able use for_each job.

the reason creating additional question i've been dwelling longer should , it's getting become quite urgent find solution problem. nudge in right direction appreciated!

create functor:

struct compareto{     compareto(const anotherobject& avalue) : thevalue(avalue){}      bool operator()(const object& anobject) const{         return anobject.getmembervar() == thevalue;     }      const anotherobject& thevalue; }; 

that can put find_if.
