http://www.dinkumware.com/htm_cpl/algorith.html#remove_copy_if concurs with
you, as does logic. Make the appropriate change.

(Of course, the above algorithm ought to be in the Standard, only spelled
"copy_if" -- I don't know what they were thinking, really...)

[ecppstdlib-devel] remove_copy_if

[W <wa...@so...>]

Just noticed this in remove_copy_if code [ <algorithm> (rev. 1.8) ]

    while (_First != _Last)
    {
        if (_Pred(*_First))
            *_Result++ = *_First;
        ++_First;
    }
    return _Result;


Shouldn't that be  if (! _Pred(*_First))  ?

 "remove_copy_if() copies elements from a source range to a destination
range, except that satisfying a predicate are not copied" ...

[ecppstdlib-devel] test

Hey everyone,

This is a test.. no need to reply, if I get the message I'll know it's
been sent :)
