In every specialization basic_string_view<charT, traits>, the type traits shall satisfy the character traits requirements ([char.traits]), and the type traits::char_type shall name the same type as charT.
Because basic_string_view refers to a constant sequence, iterator and const_iterator are the same type.
constexpr basic_string_view() noexcept;
constexpr basic_string_view(const charT* str);
constexpr basic_string_view(const charT* str, size_type len);
using const_iterator = implementation-defined;
A type that meets the requirements of a constant random access iterator ([random.access.iterators]) and of a contiguous iterator ([iterator.requirements.general]) whose value_type is the template parameter charT.
For a basic_string_view str, any operation that invalidates a pointer in the range [str.data(), str.data() + str.size()) invalidates pointers, iterators, and references returned from str's methods.
All requirements on container iterators ([container.requirements]) apply to basic_string_view::const_iterator as well.

constexpr int compare(basic_string_view str) const noexcept;
Effects: Determines rlen, the effective length of the strings to compare. The function then compares the two strings by calling traits::compare(data(), str.data(), rlen).

This section specifies the basic_string_view member functions named find, rfind, find_first_of, find_last_of, find_first_not_of, and find_last_not_of.
Member functions in this section have complexity O(size() * str.size()) at worst, although implementations are encouraged to do better.
Each member function of the form
constexpr return-type F(const charT* s, size_type pos);
is equivalent to return F(basic_string_view(s), pos);
Each member function of the form
constexpr return-type F(const charT* s, size_type pos, size_type n);
is equivalent to return F(basic_string_view(s, n), pos);
Each member function of the form
constexpr return-type F(charT c, size_type pos);
is equivalent to return F(basic_string_view(&c, 1), pos);
