Re: Using for each, in with STL containers with non-const iterators

I want to use the "for each, in" syntax with an STL container, and still
modify the elements of the container while iterating.

I was expecting this to work:
[..]
for each( int& num in lst ) {
num++;
}

This 'for each' syntax doesn't exist in C++.

This is valid code:
for each( const int& cref in lst ) { /**/ }

...but 'cref' is not an l-value, so you can't modify the elements of the
list while iterating!

How are you compiling this? This for sure is not valid C++!
