Description Michael Catanzaro 2019-03-03 09:49:30 PST
Splitting this out from bug #195247. Dan wants to use template magic to be able to use StringView to interact with a HashMap keyed on String:

> Even better, as I type this I could swear we
> solved this issue with template magic and made it so you could pass
> StringView to HashMap::find(). Can you check? I think we call this magic a
> HashTranslator or adapter and there is a template overload of
> HashMap::find(). And if we don’t have such magic because we are missing the
> HashTranslator for StringView then please either add it OR file a bug so
> that we can add it.

(It doesn't work, currently.)
