Thanks.  This should be fixed in an upcoming draft.

Hi,

in paper N2315 [string.cons], paragraph 18 specifies that both
signatures of the assignment operator:

  basic_string<charT,traits,Allocator>&
    operator=(const basic_string<charT,traits,Allocator>& str );
  basic_string<charT,traits,Allocator>&
    operator=(const basic_string<charT,traits,Allocator>&& str );

do not throw exceptions. Of course, that cannot be possible for the
first signature, as it may need to perform an allocation. I suggest to
replace paragraph 18 with:

  Throws: The second form throws nothing.

For reference, see paragraph 3 about the copy constructors, with the
only difference being that assignment operators do not copy the allocators.

Just my 2 eurocent,

Ganesh
