<p>The indirect iterator adapts an iterator by applying an <em>extra</em>
dereference inside of <tt class="literal"><span class="pre">operator*()</span></tt>. For example, this iterator
adaptor makes it possible to view a container of pointers
(e.g. <tt class="literal"><span class="pre">list&lt;foo*&gt;</span></tt>) as if it were a container of the pointed-to type
(e.g. <tt class="literal"><span class="pre">list&lt;foo&gt;</span></tt>) .</p>
<!-- At some point we should add the capability to handle
iterators over smart pointers, which the impl handles. -JGS -->

<p>The <tt class="literal"><span class="pre">value_type</span></tt> of the <tt class="literal"><span class="pre">Iterator</span></tt> template parameter should
itself be dereferenceable. The return type of the <tt class="literal"><span class="pre">operator*</span></tt> for
the <tt class="literal"><span class="pre">value_type</span></tt> must be the same type as the <tt class="literal"><span class="pre">Reference</span></tt> template
parameter. The <tt class="literal"><span class="pre">Value</span></tt> template parameter will be the <tt class="literal"><span class="pre">value_type</span></tt>
for the <tt class="literal"><span class="pre">indirect_iterator</span></tt>, unless <tt class="literal"><span class="pre">Value</span></tt> is const. If <tt class="literal"><span class="pre">Value</span></tt>
is <tt class="literal"><span class="pre">const</span> <span class="pre">X</span></tt>, then <tt class="literal"><span class="pre">value_type</span></tt> will be <em>non-</em> <tt class="literal"><span class="pre">const</span> <span class="pre">X</span></tt>. The
default for <tt class="literal"><span class="pre">Value</span></tt> is</p>
<pre class="literal-block">
iterator_traits&lt; iterator_traits&lt;Iterator&gt;::value_type &gt;::value_type
</pre>
<p>If the default is used for <tt class="literal"><span class="pre">Value</span></tt>, then there must be a valid
specialization of <tt class="literal"><span class="pre">iterator_traits</span></tt> for the value type of the base
iterator.</p>
<p>The <tt class="literal"><span class="pre">Reference</span></tt> parameter will be the <tt class="literal"><span class="pre">reference</span></tt> type of the
<tt class="literal"><span class="pre">indirect_iterator</span></tt>. The default is <tt class="literal"><span class="pre">Value&amp;</span></tt>.</p>
<p>The <tt class="literal"><span class="pre">Access</span></tt> and <tt class="literal"><span class="pre">Traversal</span></tt> parameters are passed unchanged to
the corresponding parameters of the <tt class="literal"><span class="pre">iterator_adaptor</span></tt> base
class, and the <tt class="literal"><span class="pre">Iterator</span></tt> parameter is passed unchanged as the
<tt class="literal"><span class="pre">Base</span></tt> parameter to the <tt class="literal"><span class="pre">iterator_adaptor</span></tt> base class.</p>
<p>The indirect iterator will model the most refined standard traversal
concept that is modeled by the <tt class="literal"><span class="pre">Iterator</span></tt> type. The indirect
iterator will model the most refined standard access concept that is
modeled by the value type of <tt class="literal"><span class="pre">Iterator</span></tt>.</p>
