This is going to break every boost library and every user which is depending on the current CVS version of iterator_adaptors. The new adaptors are so much better designed and easier to use that making the transition should be cake, but before I do anything drastic I want to hear how loud the pre-emptive screaming is ;-)
Objections?
No objections, Your Honour :-) ... just two remarks.
I tried to update the view library (uses iterator_adaptors a lot), and generally it turned out to be straight-forward. However:
+ permutation_iterator is missing - when will it be due?
(It would be easier to "port" derived iterator types if there was
a detailed how-to somewhere.)+ Problems with MSVC++ 7.0 (as ever) and dereference (I guess this is a problem with default types). Demonstrated with reverse_iterator:
int numbers[] = { 1,2,3,4,5,6,7 }; const int N = sizeof(numbers)/sizeof(int); std::vector<int> v( numbers, numbers + N );
typedef boost::reverse_iterator< std::vector<int>::iterator >
reverse_iterator;
reverse_iterator rit( v.begin() ); if( *rit == v[0] ) // Does not compile
{ } if( v[0] == *rit ) // Does not compile
{ }- Roland
