HI,
I'm using the boost iterator_facade class to implement a random access
iterator for my class. When I try to assign the iterators to one
another, the compiler fails saying
'operator =' function is unavailable".
Sample code from my implementation below:
|class MyClass{
class Iterator : public boost::iterator_facade{ protected:
void increment();
bool equal(const Iterator& rhs)const; //etc
|| //... Note - no method implemented to support assignment |
| }
}|
I'd assumed that it'll be possible to assign iterators to each other.
Why is the assignment operator not supported by iterator_facade. It
implements other operations (like ++ and ==)by making the derived
version implement private methods (like increment and equal). Am I
missing something. The boost documentation doesn't mention why this is
not supported.
Thanks
AR
