Discussion:
In Table 56 (Traits requirements) the not_eof() member function
is using an argument of type e which denotes an object of
type X::int_type. However, the specializations in
27.2.4 [char.traits.specializations] all use char_type.
This would effectively mean that the argument type actually can't
represent EOF in the first place. I'm pretty sure that the type used
to be int_type which is quite obviously the only sensible
argument.
This issue is close to being editorial. I suspect that the proposal
changing this section to include the specializations for char16_t
and char32_t accidentally used the wrong type.
Proposed resolution:
In 27.2.4.2 [char.traits.specializations.char],
[char.traits.specializations.char16_t],
[char.traits.specializations.char32_t], and
[char.traits.specializations.wchar_t] correct the
argument type from char_type to int_type.
Rationale:
Already fixed in WP.
