Hi, 

I am using Triangulation_3 and I have problems using a std::map with
Finite_cells_iterator and Cell_handle. Until now I have been using
seamlessly the iterator as a Cell_handle but for the map it doesn't work.

To fill the map I go over the cells with the iterator and compute the
information:

std::map<Cell_handle, Information> information_map;
for(Finite_cells_iterator cit = delaunay.finite_cells_begin(); cit !=
delaunay.finite_cells_end() ; ++cit){
           ...
       information_map[cit] = cell_info;
       ...    
} 

Then I use the locate function to get the cells and I want to get the
information stored in the map: 

Cell_handle ch = delaunay.locate(point, locate_type, li, lj, start);       
if(locate_type != OUTSIDE_CONVEX_HULL && locate_type !=
OUTSIDE_AFFINE_HULL){
       ...
       Information i = information_map[ch];
       ...
}

But the information the I get is the default of the map, I have done several
tests with the std::find() function and the Cell_handle is not found. I
wanted to avoid using triangulation_with_info because I have big meshes and
I want to limit the memory footprint.

It works for a map built with Finite_vertices_iterator and the look up done
with Vertex_handle. How can I make it work for the cells?

Thank you for your attention, 
Noura
