5 ``indirect_iterator`` adapts an iterator by applying an
6 *extra* dereference inside of ``operator*()``. For example, this
7 iterator adaptor makes it possible to view a container of pointers
8 (e.g. ``list<foo*>``) as if it were a container of the pointed-to type
9 (e.g. ``list<foo>``). ``indirect_iterator`` depends on two
10 auxiliary traits, ``pointee`` and ``indirect_reference``, to
11 provide support for underlying iterators whose ``value_type`` is
