<h3>Overview</h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
Five types of objects are currently supported by the library:
|
|
|
|
<ul >
|
|
|
|
<li >
|
|
|
|
standard containers
|
|
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
<li >
|
|
|
|
built-in arrays
|
|
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
<li >
|
|
|
|
null terminated strings (this includes <code >char[]</code>,<code >wchar_t[]</code>,
|
|
|
|
<code >char*</code>, and <code >wchar_t*</code>)
|
|
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
<li >
|
|
|
|
<code >std::pair<iterator,iterator></code>
|
|
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
<li >
|
|
|
|
iterators which when default constructed denotes the end of the range
|
|
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
It is worth noticing that some functionality requires partial template
|
|
|
|
specialization, in particular, full array support does (remark: this is a very
|
|
|
|
small problem since one would use <code>boost::array<></code> anyway). Also note
|
|
|
|
that arrays and pointers of <code >char</code> or <code >whar_t</code> are
|
|
|
|
treated special because of their use in string algorithms.
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h3 >ExternalCollectionConcept</h3><a name="ExternalCollectionConcept" ></a>
|
|
|
|
<p >
|
|
|
|
The concept is defined by the type-generators and the functions below. Even
|
|
|
|
though these functions are defined in namespace <code>boost</code>, there is no
|
|
|
|
such general requirement, that is, if one wants to extend the list of supported
|
|
|
|
types, it can be done in any namespace.
