template< class Iter >
class move_iterator;
std::move_iterator
is an iterator adaptor which behaves exactly like the underlying iterator (which must be at least a LegacyInputIterator or model input_iterator
(since C++20), or stronger iterator concept(since C++23)), except that dereferencing converts the value returned by the underlying iterator into an rvalue. If this iterator is used as an input iterator, the effect is that the values are moved from, rather than copied from.
Iter

the underlying iterator
requires (!std::sized_sentinel_for<Iterator1, Iterator2>)
constexpr bool disable_sized_sentinel_for
This partial specialization of std::disable_sized_sentinel_for
prevents specializations of move_iterator
from satisfying sized_sentinel_for
if their underlying iterators do not satisfy the concept.

Possible output:
Old contents of the vector: "this" "_" "is" "_" "an" "_" "example" New contents of the vector: "" "" "" "" "" "" "" Concatenated as string: "this_is_an_example"[edit] Defect reports
