Curently they are not, unless the iterator happens to be a pointer. The trouble in that case would be that my implementation used void* underneith and hence has special iterators that does a reinterpret_cast. A reinterpret_cast appears here and there in the container's implmentation too. So given that iterators in general are not supported, would you then prefer the ptr_ prefix? -Thorsten
