If that is „as expected“ it still violates the requirements for an InputIterator. See the last row in Table 107 in 24.2.3 in the standard http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2014/n4296.pdf

As-is the current “iterator” is not a valid iterator of any kind as InputIterator is already the weakest requirement.

Example of how it should work (using an istream_iterator, which is an InputIterator):

#include <iostream>

#include <sstream>

#include <iterator>

auto main(int, char **) -> int

{

      std::istringstream str("Hello , World !");

      for(auto it = std::istream_iterator<std::string>(str); it != std::istream_iterator<std::string>();)

            std::cout << *it++;

      std::cout << "\n";

}

Which outputs (as expected):

Hello,World!

The issue can be solved by storing a value in the iterator or returning a proxy object which dereferences to the original value.

Compiling is not the issue.

it works as expected

Furthermore your example does not test the issue I mentioned, as it does not use *it++;

operator++ has higher precedence than operator* -> each increment triggers an jump/switch operation -> last increment invalidates coroutine
