This pull request addresses a compile error occurring when attempting to instantiate std::vector with a constant value type.

The issue arose in catch_generators_range.hpp, where ResultType was defined as a value_type of const_iterator within GeneratorWrapper<ResultType> which is usually const. This caused a conflict with std::vector, which requires its value_type to be non-const.

Can you provide a reproducer?

Hm, I see that const_iterators of the standard containers does not have const qualified value_type, so I don't know if my patch is relevant. On the other hand, removing const from value type here probably does not break anything.

I encounter this when I used yaml-cpp for parsing test cases. Simplyfied example is:

#include <catch2/catch_test_macros.hpp>
#include <catch2/generators/catch_generators_range.hpp>

#include <yaml-cpp/yaml.h>

auto yaml = YAML::LoadFile("test.yaml");

TEST_CASE("test case") {
    auto value = GENERATE(from_range(yaml));
}
