we could write this loop as `for (; start < end && value[start] <= u' ';
++start)`

Even though I'm not sure if the compiler would generate more efficient code.

Yes, but I rather wanted to separate that comparison in order to improve the
readability (pretty subjective though) and because I thought that perhaps that
condition could be changed, so it will be easier to do it. If you want I can
change it of course.

Acknowledged.

what if secondBeginPos > value.length() ? since size_type is unsigned, it would
lead to undefined behaviour

[sergei, 2018/03/01 21:14:12]

value.length(), secondBeginPos and len (the third arg of DependentString ctr)
are all unsigned integers which can represent the values, AFAIR (I googled,
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/28779803/is-subtracting-larger-unsigned-v...,
it's the same in C++14, the footnote is 48, though) the result of len should be
defined.

Acknowledged.
