views::generate doesn't work with views::chunk_by

[gbeck75]

The following code fails to compile but works as expected if I use iota() instead of generate()

// auto v = views::iota(10,20);
auto v = views::generate(
        [i=10u] () mutable {
            return i++;
        }) | views::take(10);

auto r = v | views::chunk_by(
            [](auto a, auto) {
                return a == 15;
            })

Is this to be expected?
How can I use views::chunk_by with views::generate ?

generate results in an input range.
iota results in a random access range.
chunk_by requires a forward range.

Thank you!
And how can I "generate" a forward range?

[JohelEGP]

Generating a forward range would mean having a regular invocable that returns the same value based on an index.
You can generate a forward range with iota(0) | transform(generate_function).

Unfortunately I only have an input range.

It seems the question should really be why chunk_by needs a forward range?
In the example it should be possible to chunk the input range in a single pass, is there something like chunk_by which works on an input range?

I'm looking at the C++ standard library implementation.
The reason seems to be that the implementation needs two iterators into the range.
The iterator's value type is a subrange: https://eel.is/c++draft/range.chunk.by#iter.
You can probably write a version that works for input ranges.
