[Insight-users] STL vector iterator

[FREDERICPCX]

Hello Zein,

if your vector is called v, maybe you can simply use something like
the following:

if (distance(v.begin(), iter1) < distance(v.begin(), iter2) { ...

Beware that calling some methods on the STL containers can invalidate
their related iterators. More in Chapter 23 of the 1997 C++ Public
Review Document: http://anubis.dkuug.dk/jtc1/sc22/open/n2356/

Hope this helps,

Frederic
