Hi,

What do you expect this code to do? Is b true or false? And why?
Is this expected behaviour?

#include <boost/range/iterator_range.hpp>
#include <string>

int main()
{
        std::string s = "Olaf";
        boost::iterator_range<std::string::iterator> r(s);
        bool a = r == s;
        bool b = r == "Olaf";
        assert(a);
        assert(b);
        return 0;
}
