Discussion:

Now that we have C++14 relaxed constexpr, we can also take care of the assignment operator and copy.

Recommend NAD: Don't want to spend the committee time. Can call std::copy if you want this, after LEWG159 goes into C++20.

[2018-06 Rapperswil Wednesday issues processing]

This will be addressed by P1032.

Resolved by the adoption of P1032 in San Diego.

Proposed resolution:

This wording is relative to N4606.

  1. In 27.3.3 [string.view.template], add constexpr to copy:

    constexpr size_type copy(charT* s, size_type n, size_type pos = 0) const;

  2. In 27.3.3.8 [string.view.ops], add constexpr to copy:

    constexpr size_type copy(charT* s, size_type n, size_type pos = 0) const;
