Insight on registering Iterators
Author
Any insight in registering templated iterators?
such as vector<int>::iterator
etc etc.
Although possible to register the std::iterators, I do not recommend it, because they are not safe in a scripted environment. This is because the iterator doesn't verify if the container is valid. It simply assumes the programmer knows what he's doing (which is not always the case for script writers).
Correct me if I'm wrong.
In either case, you'd have to register a new type for each of the iterators you wish to use, and the appropriate methods to work with them. The increment and decrement operators are not overloadable for AngelScript (yet anyway) so you'd have to settle for methods like next() and prev().

But as an script engine is like a front-end for the underlaying engine, you can implement safety checks in the AS iterator assigment functions, like testing for it != iend and (*it) or it->second != NULL
assigment operators functions can be registerd in AS, right?
Or an interator factory can be registered in AS
All refers to AS 1.x, i have never used AS 2.x
