#5463: default constructor of filter_iterator does not initialize members
---------------------------------------------+------------------------------
  Reporter: aleksander.sulkowski@… | Owner: dave
      Type: Bugs | Status: closed
 Milestone: To Be Determined | Component: iterator
   Version: Boost 1.47.0 | Severity: Problem
Resolution: invalid | Keywords: filter_iterator default constructor
---------------------------------------------+------------------------------

Comment (by anonymous):

 2 default constructed pointers are equal (if they are initialized). Why
 wouldn't iterators be? The current iterator behavior changes between
 different compilers/modes. Make the constructor private if you do not want
 it to be used. Making it not deterministic is not helping. Why would one
 expose a nondeterministic method?

 Is there any argument why not to initialize members of the iterator?
