Hi everyone,
is there any way to generically determine at compiletime whether an iterator or a boost range refers to contiguous memory?
i.e. &*(it+1) == (&*it)+1
some type trait like
is_contiguous<T *>::value == true is_contiguous<vector<T>::**iterator>::value == true is_contiguous<std::list<T>::**iterator>::value == false
?
AFAIK, not presently, but this has been discussed quite a bit in several past threads on the Boost developers list. - Jeff
