In the following code, libstdc++'s debug mode does not catch the use of a
potentially invalidated std::string iterator.
#define _GLIBCXX_DEBUG
#define _GLIBCXX_DEBUG_PEDANTIC
#include <string>
#include <vector>
#include <iostream>
int main()
{
typedef std::string S;
S s (3, 'x');
S::iterator i = s.begin(); ++i;
s.push_back('y');
std::cout << *i << std::endl; // just outputs 'x'
}
Since the push_back may invalidate i (per 21.3 para 5, 4th item), libstdc++'s
debug mode should emit an error and abort.
If I change the typedef to std::vector<char>, then the indicated line /does/
cause libstdc++ to emit an error ("attempt to dereference a singular iterator")
and abort.
