I'm trying this example in the (translated to dutch) book of Bjarne Stroustrup (C++):

#include <vector>
#include <list>
#include "complex.h"

complex ac[200];
std::vector<complex> vc;
std::list<complex> l;

template<class In, class Out> void Copy(In from, In too_far, Out to) {
    while(from != too_far) { 
            *to = *from;
            ++to;
            ++from;
            }
}

void g(std::vector<complex>& vc , std::list<complex>& lc) {
    Copy(&ac[0], &ac[200], lc.begin());           // generates debug error
    Copy(lc.begin(), lc.end(), vc.begin());       // also generates debug error
}

void f() {
    ac[0] = complex(10,20);
    g(vc, l);
}

int main () {
    f();
}

** Compiling and Linking goes successful (0 errors/warnings)**

But at runtime I get this error:

Debug Assertion Failed!

Program: path to exe

file: \program files\ms vs studio 10.0\vc\include\list

Line: 207

Expression: list iterator not dereferenceable

For information on how your program can cause an assertion failure, see the Visual C++ documentation on asserts. (Press retry to debug the application)
