If the order of elements is unimportant, sort the vector (with std::sort) before using unique.

#include <map>
class MyObject
{
...
   int UniqueID() const;
...
};
std::map<int, MyObject> myMap;

To insert an item:
   MyObject o;
   myMap.insert(std::make_pair(o.UniqueID(), o));
To retrieve an item:
  MyObject anotherO = myMap[someID];

1. Use GetPrivateProfileIntA, which is the the ASCII version of GetPrivateProfileInt.
2. If the string is a literal, pass it as L"string-literal" rather than "string-literal"
3. Convert the char buffer(s) to wchar_t before passing into GetPrivateProfileInt:

<div style="margin-left: 80px;"><code>char charBuffer[260];
wchar_t wcharBuffer[260];
mbtowc(wcharBuffer, charBuffer, 260);</code></div>
