constexpr const iterator_type& base() const& noexcept;			(since C++20)
constexpr iterator_type base() &&;		(2)	(since C++20)

Returns the underlying iterator.

1) Returns a copy of(until C++20)reference to(since C++20) the underlying iterator.

2) Returns an iterator move constructed from the underlying iterator.

Return value

1) current

2) std::move(current )

Example

Run this code

#include <algorithm>
#include <iostream>
#include <iterator>
#include <vector>
 
int main()
{
    std::vector<int> v{0, 1, 2, 3, 4};
    std::move_iterator<std::vector<int>::reverse_iterator>
        m1{v.rbegin()},
        m2{v.rend()};
 
    std::copy(m1.base(), m2.base(), std::ostream_iterator<int>(std::cout, " "));
    std::cout << '\n';
}

Output:

4 3 2 1 0

Defect reports

The following behavior-changing defect reports were applied retroactively to previously published C++ standards.

DR	Applied to	Behavior as published	Correct behavior
LWG 3391	C++20	overload (1) returned a copy of the underlying iterator	returns a reference
LWG 3593	C++20	overload (1) was not noexcept	made noexcept
