+// 311-Gen-CustomCapture.cpp
+// Shows how to provide custom capture list to the generator expression
+
+// Note that using variables inside generators is dangerous and should
+// be done only if you know what you are doing, because the generators
+// _WILL_ outlive the variables. Also, even if you know what you are
+// doing, you should probably use GENERATE_COPY or GENERATE_REF macros
+// instead. However, if your use case requires having a
+// per-variable custom capture list, this example shows how to achieve
+// that.
