Subject: [Boost-users] [Range] Single Pass Range functionality
From: Edward Diener (eldiener_at_[hidden])

In the Boost Range documentation describing the Range concepts for a
single pass range it lists in the expression semantics post-condition
for boost::begin(a):
"boost::begin(a) is either dereferenceable or past-the-end. It is
past-the-end if and only if boost::distance(a) == 0."
However the documentation for single pass range does not list
boost::distance as a valid expression nor in the reference section is
boost::distance listed as a single pass range function.
Is boost::distance a valid function when applied to a single pass range ?
