What language are you using? What Frameworks/APIs? POST YOUR CODE

The easiest method is probably:

typedef std::map<std::string, uint16_t> HashTable;
HashTable foo;
foo.insert(HashTable::value_type("hello world", 42));

 

[iSee]

easiest method:

	std::map<std::string, uint16_t> myMap;
	myMap["the key"] = 77;

just accessing the map with the square bracket operator will insert a value
