Defined in header <ranges>
template< ranges::input_range V >     requires ranges::view<V> class to_input_view     : public ranges::view_interface<to_input_view<V>>	(1)	(since C++26)
namespace views {     inline constexpr /* unspecified */ to_input = /* unspecified */; }	(2)	(since C++26)
Call signature
template< ranges::viewable_range R >     requires /* see below */ constexpr ranges::view auto to_input( R&& r );		(since C++26)

1) A range adaptor that represents a view of an underlying view as an input_range-only and not a common_range.

2) RangeAdaptorObject. Let e be a subexpression, and let T be decltype(e). Then the expression views::to_input(e) is expression-equivalent to:

• views::all(e), if it is a well-formed expression and all of the conditions below are true:
  • T models input_range,
  • T does not satisfy common_range, and
  • T does not satisfy forward_range.
• to_input_view{e} otherwise.

Consequently, to_input_view never models range concepts that are stronger than input_range. In particular, it does not model all of these:

• forward_range
• bidirectional_range
• random_access_range
• contiguous_range

Additionally, to_input_view does not model common_range. However, it does model borrowed_range, constant_range, and sized_range when the underlying view V models respective concepts.

Data members

Member	Description
V base_ (private)	the underlying view (exposition-only member object*)

Member functions

(constructor)	constructs a to_input_view (public member function)
base	returns a copy of the underlying (adapted) view (public member function)
begin	returns an iterator to the beginning (public member function)
end	returns an iterator or a sentinel to the end (public member function)
size	returns the number of elements. Provided only if the underlying (adapted) range satisfies sized_range. (public member function)
Inherited from std::ranges::view_interface
empty	returns whether the derived view is empty, provided only if it satisfies sized_range or forward_range (public member function of std::ranges::view_interface<D>)
cbegin (C++23)	returns a constant iterator to the beginning of the range (public member function of std::ranges::view_interface<D>)
cend (C++23)	returns a sentinel for the constant iterator of the range (public member function of std::ranges::view_interface<D>)
operator bool	returns whether the derived view is not empty, provided only if ranges::empty is applicable to it (public member function of std::ranges::view_interface<D>)
data	gets the address of derived view's data, provided only if its iterator type satisfies contiguous_iterator (public member function of std::ranges::view_interface<D>)
front	returns the first element in the derived view, provided if it satisfies forward_range (public member function of std::ranges::view_interface<D>)
back	returns the last element in the derived view, provided only if it satisfies bidirectional_range and common_range (public member function of std::ranges::view_interface<D>)
operator[]	returns the nth element in the derived view, provided only if it satisfies random_access_range (public member function of std::ranges::view_interface<D>)

std::ranges::to_input_view::to_input_view

to_input_view() requires std::default_initializable<V> = default;	(1)	(since C++26)
constexpr explicit to_input_view( V base );	(2)	(since C++26)

1) Value-initializes base_ via its default member initializer (= V()).

2) Initializes base_ with std::move(base).

Parameters

base

-

a view

std::ranges::to_input_view::base

constexpr V base() const& requires std::copy_constructible<V>;	(1)	(since C++26)
constexpr V base() &&;	(2)	(since C++26)

1) Copy-constructs the result from the underlying view. Equivalent to return base_;.

2) Move-constructs the result from the underlying view. Equivalent to return std::move(base_);.

std::ranges::to_input_view::begin

constexpr auto begin() requires (!__simple_view<V>);	(1)	(since C++26)
constexpr auto begin() const requires ranges::range<const V>;	(2)	(since C++26)

1) Equivalent to return /*iterator*/<false>(ranges::begin(base_));

2) Equivalent to return /*iterator*/<true>(ranges::begin(base_));

std::ranges::to_input_view::end

constexpr auto end() requires (!__simple_view<V>);	(1)	(since C++26)
constexpr auto end() const requires ranges::range<const V>;	(2)	(since C++26)

1,2) Equivalent to return ranges::end(base_);

std::ranges::to_input_view::size

constexpr auto size() requires ranges::sized_range<V>;	(1)	(since C++26)
constexpr auto size() const requires ranges::sized_range<const V>;	(2)	(since C++26)

1,2) Equivalent to return ranges::size(base_);

Deduction guides

template< class R > to_input_view( R&& ) -> to_input_view<views::all_t<R>>;		(since C++26)

Nested classes

iterator

the iterator type (exposition-only member class template*)

Helper templates

template< class T > constexpr bool enable_borrowed_range<std::ranges::to_input_view<T>> =     ranges::enable_borrowed_range<T>;		(since C++26)

This specialization of std::ranges::enable_borrowed_range makes to_input_view satisfy borrowed_range when the underlying view satisfies it.

Notes

to_input_view can be useful to avoid the overhead necessary to provide support for the operations needed for greater iterator strength.
