<p><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">std::iterator_traits</span></tt> provides access to five associated types
 | 
						|
of any iterator: its <tt class="docutils literal">value_type</tt>, <tt class="docutils literal">reference</tt>, <tt class="docutils literal">pointer</tt>,
 | 
						|
<tt class="docutils literal">iterator_category</tt>, and <tt class="docutils literal">difference_type</tt>.  Unfortunately,
 | 
						|
such a "multi-valued" traits template can be difficult to use in a
 | 
						|
metaprogramming context.  <tt class="docutils literal"><boost/iterator/iterator_traits.hpp></tt>
 | 
						|
provides access to these types using a standard <a class="reference external" href="../../mpl/doc/index.html#metafunctions">metafunctions</a>.</p>
