<P>[Moved to DR at the October, 2015 meeting.]</P>

<P>According to 6.8.6.1 [<A href="https://wg21.link/basic.stc.general#1">basic.stc.general</A>] paragraph 1,</P>

<BLOCKQUOTE>

The storage duration of member subobjects, base class
subobjects and array elements is that of their complete
object (6.8.2 [<A href="https://wg21.link/intro.object">intro.object</A>]).

</BLOCKQUOTE>

<P>This wording does not cover member references, which should also
have the same storage duration as the object of which they are a
member.</P>

<P><B>Proposed resolution (May, 2015):</B></P>

<P>Change 6.8.6.1 [<A href="https://wg21.link/basic.stc.general#1">basic.stc.general</A>] paragraph 1 as follows:</P>

<BLOCKQUOTE>

The storage duration of <DEL>member</DEL> subobjects<DEL>,
base class subobjects</DEL> and <DEL>array
elements</DEL> <INS>reference members</INS> is that of their
complete object (6.8.2 [<A href="https://wg21.link/intro.object">intro.object</A>]).
