#
In every specialization basic_­string_­view<charT, traits>, the type traits shall meet the character traits requirements ([char.traits]).
[Note 1:
The program is ill-formed if traits​::​char_­type is not the same type as 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 member functions.

#
The complexity of basic_­string_­view member functions is unless otherwise specified.
229)
Because basic_­string_­view refers to a constant sequence, iterator and const_­iterator are the same type.
