inline <A href="bidirectional_iterator_tag.html">bidirectional_iterator_tag</A> 
iterator_category(const <A href="bidirectional_iterator.html">bidirectional_iterator</A>&lt;T, Distance&gt;&amp;);

template &lt;class T, class Distance&gt; 
inline <A href="random_access_iterator_tag.html">random_access_iterator_tag</A> 
iterator_category(const <A href="random_access_iterator.html">random_access_iterator</A>&lt;T, Distance&gt;&amp;);

template &lt;class T&gt;
inline <A href="random_access_iterator_tag.html">random_access_iterator_tag</A> iterator_category(const T*);
</pre>                   
<h3>Description</h3>
<tt>Iterator_category</tt> is an <A href="iterator_tags.html">iterator tag</A> function: it is used to
determine the category to which an iterator belongs.  Specifically,
every iterator must belong to a type that is a model of the concept
<A href="OutputIterator.html">Output Iterator</A>, <A href="InputIterator.html" tppabs="http://www.sgi.com/Technology/STL/InputIterator.shtml">Input Iterator</A>, <A href="ForwardIterator.html" tppabs="http://www.sgi.com/Technology/STL/ForwardIterator.shtml">Forward Iterator</A>,
<A href="BidirectionalIterator.html">Bidirectional Iterator</A>, or <A href="RandomAccessIterator.html" tppabs="http://www.sgi.com/Technology/STL/RandomAccessIterator.shtml">Random Access Iterator</A>. <A href="#1">[1]</A>
<tt>Iterator_category</tt> returns an object of class
<tt><A href="output_iterator_tag.html">output_iterator_tag</A></tt>, <tt><A href="input_iterator_tag.html" tppabs="http://www.sgi.com/Technology/STL/input_iterator_tag.shtml">input_iterator_tag</A></tt>,
<tt><A href="forward_iterator_tag.html">forward_iterator_tag</A></tt>, or <tt><A href="random_access_iterator_tag.html" tppabs="http://www.sgi.com/Technology/STL/random_access_iterator_tag.shtml">random_access_iterator_tag</A></tt>,
depending on which concept the type of <tt>iterator_category</tt>'s 
argument is a model of. <A href="#2">[2]</A>  This information is useful in the case of
an algorithm that has a sensible definition for more than one category
of iterator, but whose definition is different depending on the category.
<P>
Although <tt>iterator_category</tt> looks like a single function whose
return type depends on its argument type, in reality it is a set
of functions; the name <tt>iterator_category</tt> is overloaded.  
The function <tt>iterator_category</tt> must
be overloaded for every iterator type.
<P>
In practice, ensuring that <tt>iterator_category</tt> is defined requires
essentially no work at all.  It is already defined for pointers, and
for the base classes <tt><A href="input_iterator.html">input_iterator</A></tt>, <tt><A href="output_iterator.html" tppabs="http://www.sgi.com/Technology/STL/output_iterator.shtml">output_iterator</A></tt>,
<tt><A href="forward_iterator.html">forward_iterator</A></tt>, <tt><A href="bidirectional_iterator.html" tppabs="http://www.sgi.com/Technology/STL/bidirectional_iterator.shtml">bidirectional_iterator</A></tt>, and
<tt><A href="random_access_iterator.html">random_access_iterator</A></tt>.  If you are implementing a new type of
forward iterator, for example, you can simply derive it from the base
class <tt><A href="forward_iterator.html">forward_iterator</A></tt>; this means that <tt>iterator_category</tt>
(along with <tt><A href="distance_type.html">distance_type</A></tt> and <tt><A href="value_type.html" tppabs="http://www.sgi.com/Technology/STL/value_type.shtml">value_type</A></tt>) will 
automatically be defined for your iterator.   These base classes are
empty: they contain no member functions or member variables, but
only type information.  Using them should therefore incur no overhead.
<P>
Note that, while the function <tt>iterator_category</tt> was present in the
original STL, it is no longer present in the most recent draft C++
standard: it has been replaced by the <tt><A href="iterator_traits.html">iterator_traits</A></tt> class.
At present both mechanisms are supported <A href="#3">[3]</A>, but eventually
<tt>iterator_category</tt> will be removed.
<h3>Definition</h3>
Defined in <A href="iterator.h">iterator.h</A>.
<h3>Requirements on types</h3>
The argument of <tt>iterator_category</tt> must be an iterator.
<h3>Preconditions</h3>
None.  <tt>Iterator_category</tt>'s argument is even permitted to be
a singular iterator.
<h3>Complexity</h3>
At most amortized constant time.  In many cases, a compiler should be
able to optimize away <tt>iterator_category</tt> entirely.
<h3>Example</h3>
<tt><A href="reverse.html">Reverse</A></tt> can be implemented for either
<A href="BidirectionalIterator.html">Bidirectional Iterators</A> or for <A href="RandomAccessIterator.html" tppabs="http://www.sgi.com/Technology/STL/RandomAccessIterator.shtml">Random Access Iterators</A>,
but the algorithm for <A href="RandomAccessIterator.html">Random Access Iterators</A> is more efficient.
Consequently, <tt><A href="reverse.html">reverse</A></tt> uses <tt>iterator_category</tt> to select 
whichever algorithm is appropriate for the iterator type.
This dispatch takes place at compile time, and should not
incur any run-time penalty.
<pre>
template &lt;class <A href="BidirectionalIterator.html">BidirectionalIterator</A>&gt;
void __reverse(BidirectionalIterator first, BidirectionalIterator last, 
               <A href="bidirectional_iterator_tag.html">bidirectional_iterator_tag</A>) {
    while (true)
        if (first == last || first == --last)
            return;
        else
            iter_swap(first++, last);
}

template &lt;class <A href="RandomAccessIterator.html">RandomAccessIterator</A>&gt;
void __reverse(RandomAccessIterator first, RandomAccessIterator last,
               <A href="random_access_iterator_tag.html">random_access_iterator_tag</A>) {
    while (first &lt; last) iter_swap(first++, --last);
}

template &lt;class <A href="BidirectionalIterator.html">BidirectionalIterator</A>&gt;
inline void <A href="reverse.html">reverse</A>(BidirectionalIterator first, BidirectionalIterator last) {
    __reverse(first, last, iterator_category(first));
}
</pre>
<h3>Notes</h3>
<P><A name="1">[1]</A>
The STL also defines one other concept, <A href="trivial.html">Trivial Iterator</A>.
This concept is introduced only for conceptual clarity, however,
in order to separate the axioms related to an object that refers
to another object from those related to iteration over a range.
In fact, the STL does not define any types that are <A href="trivial.html">Trivial Iterators</A>.
Although built-in C pointers may be <A href="trivial.html">Trivial Iterators</A>, the C
type system does not allow a distinction between pointers that are
<A href="trivial.html">Trivial Iterators</A> and pointers that are <A href="RandomAccessIterator.html" tppabs="http://www.sgi.com/Technology/STL/RandomAccessIterator.shtml">Random Access Iterators</A>
into C arrays.  Consequently, there is no <A href="trivial.html">Trivial Iterator</A> category
tag.
<P><A name="2">[2]</A>
Any type that is a model of <A href="ForwardIterator.html">Forward Iterator</A> is also a model
of <A href="InputIterator.html">Input Iterator</A>, any type that is a model of 
<A href="BidirectionalIterator.html">Bidirectional Iterator</A> is also a model of <A href="ForwardIterator.html" tppabs="http://www.sgi.com/Technology/STL/ForwardIterator.shtml">Forward Iterator</A>,
and any type that is a model of <A href="RandomAccessIterator.html">Random Access Iterator</A> is also
a model of <A href="BidirectionalIterator.html">Bidirectional Iterator</A>.  <tt>Iterator_category</tt> must
return a tag representing the <i>most specific</i> concept that its 
argument is a model of.  If its argument is a <tt><A href="Vector.html">vector</A>::iterator</tt>,
for example, then it must return <tt><A href="random_access_iterator_tag.html">random_access_iterator_tag</A></tt>.
<P><A name="3">[3]</A>
The <tt><A href="iterator_traits.html">iterator_traits</A></tt> class
relies on a C++ feature known as <i>partial specialization</i>.  Many of
today's compilers don't implement the complete standard; in
particular, many compilers do not support partial specialization.  If
your compiler does not support partial specialization, then you will
not be able to use <tt><A href="iterator_traits.html">iterator_traits</A></tt>, and you will have to 
continue using the functions <tt>iterator_category</tt>, <tt><A href="distance_type.html">distance_type</A></tt>,
and <tt><A href="value_type.html">value_type</A></tt>.  This is one reason that those functions have
not yet been removed.
