1280. Object reallocation and reference members

Section: 6.7.4  [basic.life]     Status: NAD     Submitter: Nikolay Ivchenkov     Date: 2011-03-27

The restrictions in 6.7.4 [basic.life] paragraph 7 on when the storage for an object containing a reference member can be reused seem overly restrictive.

Rationale (August, 2011):

CWG did not find a persuasive use case for a change to the existing rules.
