yes it is, but you need to pass the template-parameters:

Sorter shell(boost::bind(quicksort, _1));

or simply

Sorter shell(quicksort);

By binding to the exact template parameters it makes the Sorter not as flexible as I'm hoping.  If I have two boost arrays defined like so.

boost::array   base10power2; boost::array base10power3;

Is there a way to just bind the array type but not the size.  This would let me call the same method with different size arrays.

Hi,

unfortunately not with boost::array, because the array-size is static. Use std::vector instead ;)

No, he can do it, but not with Boost.Bind that I know of, use Boost.Phoenix instead, it can do this easily (reference Boost.Phoenix.Function wrapper). Actually, he might be able to do it with Boost.Bind if he wraps it in a functor with an operator() that calls his template function...
