[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #48726] caseless_str overloads compare and inverts meaning

[Carnë Draug]

Follow-up Comment #9, bug #48726 (project octave):

My proposal adds the strcmp and strcmpi that you would expect in Octave.

We could add operators to caseless_str but as you already found out, that is
tricky and I think it would be easy to accidentally call the operators for the
parent classes. Also, subclassing from std:: is never recommended (although
the main reason is lack of virtual destructor which we wouldn't need in this
case).

I only need a size_type in Array to make it work, so I sent a message to
maintainers list about it.
