[libcxx-commits] [PATCH] D117371: [libcxx][test] {move, reverse}_iterator cannot be instantiated for a type with no `operator*` in C++20

[Arthur O'Dwyer via Phabricator via libcxx-commits]

Quuxplusone added a comment.

> Just curious, why does it not work with MSVC? The most naive implementation of `move_iterator` would allow instantiating it without an `operator*` as long as you don't try to instantiate `operator*`. Does MSVC do it differently?

Casey explains this in the commit summary:

> their nested reference types are defined in terms of `iter_reference_t<T>`, which examines `decltype(*declval<T>())`.

This is new in C++20; we haven't done it yet (but I'm working on it).
