<h1>Generator Iterator Adaptor</h1>

<p>Defined in header <a href=

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>The generator iterator adaptor makes it easier to create custom input
|
|
|
|
|
iterators from 0-ary functions and function objects. The adaptor takes a
|
|
|
|
|
<a href="http://www.sgi.com/tech/stl/Generator.html">Generator</a> and
|
|
|
|
|
creates a model of <a href=
|
|
|
|
|
"http://www.sgi.com/tech/stl/InputIterator.html">Input Iterator</a>. Each
|
|
|
|
|
increment retrieves an item from the generator and makes it available to be
|
|
|
|
|
retrieved by dereferencing. The motivation for this iterator is that some
|
|
|
|
|
concepts can be more naturally expressed as a generator, while most STL
|
|
|
|
|
algorithms expect an iterator. An example is the <a href=
|
|
|
|
|
"../random/index.html">Random Number</a> library.</p>

<h2>The Generator Iterator Generator Class</h2>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>The class generator_iterator_generator is a helper class whose purpose
|
|
|
|
|
is to construct a generator iterator type. The template parameter for this
|
|
|
|
|
class is the Generator function object type that is being wrapped. The
|
|
|
|
|
generator iterator adaptor only holds a reference (or pointer) to the
|
|
|
|
|
function object, therefore the function object must outlive the generator
|
|
|
|
|
iterator adaptor constructed from it.</p>
