draft/source/strings.tex

Line 5451 in 61b6c21

Equivalent to: \tcode{return compare(0, npos, x) == 0;}

The current specification, which is equivalent to

return compare(x) == 0;

, compares the entire basic_string_view with x.

As its name suggests, the expected implementation is

return compare(0, x.size(), x) == 0;

I agree, but this is not editorial. Can you email lwgchair@gmail.com and ask to have an issue opened?

This is a duplicate of #1870 and LWG 3040

(The current proposed resolution for LWG 3040 seems technically incorrect; I've sent an e-mail to the -lib reflector.)
