------- Comment #7 from sebor at roguewave dot com 2005-12-08 00:08 ------- FWIW, I think Andrew makes a good point in comment #1. The algorithms really should return the iterator, otherwise the caller may not be able to find out the state of the iterator after the algorithm returns (e.g., when the iterator is ostreambuf_iterator). It may not be a bad idea to open an issue (or at least bring it up on the reflector).
