Discussion:
(Based on recent comp.std.c++ discussion)
Pair (and tuple) should specialize std::swap to work in terms of std::swap on their components. For example, there's no obvious reason why swapping two objects of type pair<vector<int>, list<double> > should not take O(1).
[Lillehammer: We agree it should be swappable. Howard will provide wording.]
[ Post Oxford: We got swap for pair but accidently missed tuple. tuple::swap is being tracked by 522. ]
Proposed resolution:
Wording provided in N1856.
Rationale:
Recommend NADResolved, fixed by
N1856.
