Perform a find into a boost::variant vector

[caneta]

I have this situation:

typedef variant<myObj<int>, myObj<float>, myObj<double>, myObj<string> > var_t;
vector<var_t> vec;
vector<var_t>::iterator it;

With a proper method I fill this heterogeneous vector without problems.

The problem is that I want to obtain the position of an object in some way.

I tried

f(var_t x) 
{
for (it = cmdLineVec.begin(), i=0; it != cmdLineVec.end(); it++, i++)
		{
			if( (*it) == x )
				cout << "Position " << i <<" !" << endl;
		}
}

and

f(var_t x){ it = find(vec.begin(), vec.end(), x) }

without success.

Have you got any idea?

Excuse me but I'm asking for an implementation, not for a editor to adopt...

One way to do it is to count the number of times operator() is called on your static visitor object.
