-[post-Kona: Howard provided wording.  At Kona the LWG agreed that
-  something along these lines was a good idea, but the original
-  proposed resolution didn't say enough about the effect of various
-  member functions on the underlying character sequences.]
-
-Rationale:
-The current basic_stringbuf description is over-constrained in such
-a way as to prohibit vendors from making this the high-performance
-in-memory stream it was meant to be.  The fundamental problem is that
-the pointers: eback(), gptr(), egptr(), pbase(), pptr(), epptr() are
-observable from a derived client, and the current description
-restricts the range [pbase(), epptr()) from being grown geometrically.
-This change allows, but does not require, geometric growth of this
-range.
-
-Backwards compatibility issues: These changes will break code that
-derives from basic_stringbuf, observes epptr(), and depends upon
-[pbase(), epptr()) growing by one character on each call to overflow()
-(i.e. test suites).  Otherwise there are no backwards compatibility
-issues.
-
-27.7.1.1/2: The non-normative note is non-binding, and if it were
-binding, would be over specification.  The recommended change focuses
-on the important observable fact.
-
-27.7.1.1/3: This change does two things: 1.  It describes exactly
-what must happen in terms of the sequences.  The terms "input
-sequence" and "output sequence" are not well defined.  2.  It
-introduces a common extension: open with app or ate mode.  I concur
-with issue 238 that paragraph 4 is both wrong and unnecessary.
-
-27.7.1.2/1: This change is the crux of the efficiency issue.  The
-resultant basic_string is not dependent upon epptr(), and thus
-implementors are free to grow the underlying buffer geometrically
-during overflow() *and* place epptr() at the end of that buffer.
-
-27.7.1.2/2:  Made consistent with the proposed 27.7.1.1/3.
-
-27.7.1.3/1: Clarifies that characters written to the stream beyond
-the initially specified string are available for reading in an i/o
-basic_streambuf.
-
-27.7.1.3/9: Made normative by removing "Notes:", and removed the
-trailing parenthetical comment concerning epptr().
-
-27.7.1.3/12: Restricting the positioning to [xbeg, xend) is no
-longer allowable since [pbase(), epptr()) may now contain
-uninitialized characters.  Positioning is only allowable over the
-initialized range.

+The classes std::unary_function and std::binary_function are both
+designed to be inherited from but contain no virtual functions.  This
+makes it too easy for a novice programmer to write code like
+binary_function<int, int, int> *p = new plus<int>; delete p;
+
+There are two common ways to prevent this source of undefined
+behavior: give the base class a public virtual destructor, or give it
+a protected nonvirtual destructor.  Since unary_function and
+binary_function have no other virtual functions, (note in particular
+the absence of an operator()() ), it would cost too much to give them
+public virtual destructors.  Therefore, they should be given protected
+nonvirtual destructors.
+Proposed resolution:
+Change Paragraph 20.3.1 of the Standard from

+
+The standard says that unique(first, last) "eliminates all but the
+first element from every consecutive group of equal elements" in
+[first, last) and returns "the end of the resulting range".  So a
+postcondition is that [first, result) is the same as the old [first,
+last) except that duplicates have been eliminated.
+
+
+What postconditions are there on the range [result, last)?  One
+  might argue that the standard says nothing about those values, so
+  they can be anything.  One might also argue that the standard
+  doesn't permit those values to be changed, so they must not be.

+[lib.alg.find] requires T to be EqualityComparable:
+
+template <class InputIterator, class T>
+   InputIterator find(InputIterator first, InputIterator last,
+                      const T& value);
+
+
+
+However the condition being tested, as specified in the Effects
+clause, is actually *i == value, where i is an InputIterator.
+
+
+
+The two clauses are in agreement only if the type of *i is T, but this
+isn't necessarily the case. *i may have a heterogeneous comparison
+operator that takes a T, or a T may be convertible to the type of *i.
+
+
+Further discussion (c++std-lib-14264): this problem affects a
+  number of algorithsm in clause 25, not just find.  We
+  should try to resolve this problem everywhere it appears.

+Rationale:
+Specifying EqualityComparable is redundant where it's correct,

+From comp.std.c++:
+
+
+I note that given an input iterator a for type T, 
+then *a only has to be "convertable to T", not actually of type T.
+
+
+Firstly, I can't seem to find an exact definition of "convertable to T". 
+While I assume it is the obvious definition (an implicit conversion), I 
+can't find an exact definition. Is there one?
+
+Slightly more worryingly, there doesn't seem to be any restriction on 
+the this type, other than it is "convertable to T". Consider two input 
+iterators a and b. I would personally assume that most people would 
+expect *a==*b would perform T(*a)==T(*b), however it doesn't seem that 
+the standard requires that, and that whatever type *a is (call it U) 
+could have == defined on it with totally different symantics and still 
+be a valid inputer iterator.
+
+Is this a correct reading? When using input iterators should I write 
+T(*a) all over the place to be sure that the object i'm using is the 
+class I expect?
+
+This is especially a nuisance for operations that are defined to be
+  "convertible to bool".  (This is probably allowed so that
+  implementations could return say an int and avoid an unnessary
+  conversion. However all implementations I have seen simply return a
+  bool anyway.  Typical implemtations of STL algorithms just write
+  things like while(a!=b && *a!=0).  But strictly
+  speaking, there are lots of types that are convertible to T but
+  that also overload the appropriate operators so this doesn't behave
+  as expected.
+
+If we want to make code like this legal (which most people seem to
+  expect), then we'll need to tighten up what we mean by "convertible
+  to T".

+
+The note on 24.1.2 Output iterators insufficently limits what can be
+performed on output iterators. While it requires that each iterator is
+progressed through only once and that each iterator is written to only
+once, it does not require the following things:
+
+Note: Here it is assumed that x is an output iterator of type X which
+has not yet been assigned to.
+
+a) That each value of the output iterator is written to:
+The standard allows:
+++x; ++x; ++x;
+
+
+
+b) That assignments to the output iterator are made in order
+X a(x); ++a; *a=1; *x=2; is allowed
+
+
+
+c) Chains of output iterators cannot be constructed:
+X a(x); ++a; X b(a); ++b; X c(b); ++c; is allowed, and under the current
+wording (I believe) x,a,b,c could be written to in any order.
+
+
+I do not believe this was the intension of the standard?
+Proposed resolution:
+Add to the note:
+
+"The values of an output iterator must be assigned to in the order they
+are generated. It is undefined to progress forward more than once from a
+value of an output iterator which has not yet been assigned."
+
+This is I believe the intension of the existing text. The "progress
+forward once" is allowed so that "*r++=t" is allowed. It may be prefered
+to instead allow something more along the lines of:
+
+"The values of an output iterator must be assigned to in the order they
+are generated. With the exception of '*r++=t', an iterator must always
+be assigned to before it is incremented".

+
+The standard's version of allocator::construct(pointer,
+const_reference) severely limits what you can construct using this
+function.  Say you can construct a socket from a file descriptor. Now,
+using this syntax, I first have to manually construct a socket from
+the fd, and then pass the constructed socket to the construct()
+function so it will just to an uninitialized copy of the socket I
+manually constructed. Now it may not always be possible to copy
+construct a socket eh! So, I feel that the changes should go in the
+allocator::construct(), making it:
+
+    template<typename T>
+    struct allocator{
+      template<typename T1>
+      void construct(pointer T1 const& rt1);
+    };
+
+
+
+Now, the ctor of the class T which matches the one that takes a T1 can
+be called! Doesn't that sound great?

At Kona the LWG agreed that + something along these lines was a good idea, but the original + proposed resolution didn't say enough about the effect of various + member functions on the underlying character sequences.] + +Rationale: +The current basic_stringbuf description is over-constrained in such +a way as to prohibit vendors from making this the high-performance +in-memory stream it was meant to be. The fundamental problem is that +the pointers: eback(), gptr(), egptr(), pbase(), pptr(), epptr() are +observable from a derived client, and the current description +restricts the range [pbase(), epptr()) from being grown geometrically. +This change allows, but does not require, geometric growth of this +range. + +Backwards compatibility issues: These changes will break code that +derives from basic_stringbuf, observes epptr(), and depends upon +[pbase(), epptr()) growing by one character on each call to overflow() +(i.e. test suites). Otherwise there are no backwards compatibility +issues. + +27.7.1.1/2: The non-normative note is non-binding, and if it were +binding, would be over specification. The recommended change focuses +on the important observable fact. + +27.7.1.1/3: This change does two things: 1. It describes exactly +what must happen in terms of the sequences. The terms "input +sequence" and "output sequence" are not well defined. 2. It +introduces a common extension: open with app or ate mode. I concur +with issue 238 that paragraph 4 is both wrong and unnecessary. + +27.7.1.2/1: This change is the crux of the efficiency issue. The +resultant basic_string is not dependent upon epptr(), and thus +implementors are free to grow the underlying buffer geometrically +during overflow() *and* place epptr() at the end of that buffer. + +27.7.1.2/2: Made consistent with the proposed 27.7.1.1/3. + +27.7.1.3/1: Clarifies that characters written to the stream beyond +the initially specified string are available for reading in an i/o +basic_streambuf. + +27.7.1.3/9: Made normative by removing "Notes:", and removed the +trailing parenthetical comment concerning epptr(). + +27.7.1.3/12: Restricting the positioning to [xbeg, xend) is no +longer allowable since [pbase(), epptr()) may now contain +uninitialized characters. Positioning is only allowable over the +initialized range. + +435. bug in DR 25Section: 21.3.7.9 [lib.string.io] Status: DR Submitter: Martin Sebor Date: 15 Oct 2003 + + +It has been pointed out that the proposed resolution in DR 25 may not be +quite up to snuff: +http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/libstdc++/2003-09/msg00147.html +http://anubis.dkuug.dk/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/lwg-defects.html#25 + + + +It looks like Petur is right.

If the intent was to +follow classic iostreams then it most likely wasn't, since setting width() +to less than the length of the string doesn't truncate it on output. This +is also the behavior of most implementations (except for SGI's standard +iostreams where the operator does truncate). + +Proposed resolution: +Change the text in 21.3.7.9, p4 from + + If bool(k) is true, inserts characters as if by calling + os.rdbuf()->sputn(str.data(), n), padding as described in stage 3 + of lib.facet.num.put.virtuals, where n is the larger of os.width() + and str.size(); + +to + + If bool(k) is true, determines padding as described in + lib.facet.num.put.virtuals, and then inserts the resulting + sequence of characters seq as if by calling + os.rdbuf()->sputn(seq, n), where n is the larger of + os.width() and str.size(); + + +[Kona: it appears that neither the original wording, DR25, nor the + proposed resolution, is quite what we want.
