Declare a function accepting generic iterator

Question

Given this code, is it possible to change dumpStrings() to be able to iterate over any container of string, like say a list

Answer 1

Create a template

template
void dumpStrings(iterator_type it, iterator_type end)
{
    while (it != end) {
        cout << *(it++) << endl;
    }
}

The template also removes the limit of the container value type to string. Note that you need the parentheses around the it++.
