Re: [Boost-users] Question Regarding Boost 1.33.1 on MSVC.NET 2003

Peter Dimov wrote:

The problem is that

boost::bind(&OperatorMap::value_type::second, _1)

returns an Operator by value (in 1.33.1) or by const reference (in the current CVS). Since boost::bind needs to decide on a result type at bind time, and since it doesn't know whether the argument coming in from the _1 is const, it needs to conservatively assume const (Lambda doesn't have this limitation because it deduces the return type at call time).

Use

boost::bind(&OperatorMap::value_type::second, _1)

to tell boost::bind to return a non-const reference.

Thanks for your quick reply! I noticed this problem at about the same time, and tried it out already. This modification indeed worked.
