Section: 25.6.5.2 [ostreambuf.iter.cons] Status: TC1 Submitter: Matt Austern Opened: 1998-10-20 Last modified: 2016-01-28

Discussion:
The requires clause for ostreambuf_iterator's constructor from an ostream_type (24.5.4.1, paragraph 1) reads "s is not null". However, s is a reference, and references can't be null.
Proposed resolution:
In 25.6.5.2 [ostreambuf.iter.cons]:
Move the current paragraph 1, which reads "Requires: s is not null.", from the first constructor to the second constructor.
Insert a new paragraph 1 Requires clause for the first constructor reading:
Requires: s.rdbuf() is not null.
