If I have not missing something BOOST_TTI_HAS_MEMBER_FUNCTION returns false for inherited member functions.

My testing shows that TTI returns false for inherited member functions which are protected, but works if they are public. I am working on a solution for inherited protected member functions.

Is there a convenient Boost solution for doing this? There is a SO http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1966362/sfinae-to-check-for-inherited-mem... solution based on SFINAE. But I would like to avoid that and would prefer a Boost solution, since that way I am more sure it works on more compilers and I want avoid maintaining code for each such specific behavior.

Thanks for the link. Hopefully this will help me.
