I&#39;m using a math library that provides a Vector class, but it does not<br>
have begin() or end() method, or any other normal container methods. I<br>
would like to pass it to functions that take a Range object as a<br>
parameter. How can I do this?<br>

I thought you could overload begin/end directly and it would get picked up by ADL, but it looks like it&#39;s range_begin/range_end.<br>
That really should be changed.<div><div></div><div class="h5"></div></div></blockquote><div><br>I disagree that this should be changed. This arrangement allows qualified calls to boost::begin(x), boost::end(x) to continue to work and find the approriate range_begin(), range_end() functions via argument dependent lookup. If this rationale does not appear correct, then please explain a little further. I would be happy to make the change if I understand that it really would be an improvement.<br>
