I believe boost.bind has the capability to look through pointers and smart pointers to transparently process the pointed-to objects. Does boost.lambda.bind also have this capability?

No, but you should be able to use bind( &A::f, *_1 ) for that.

This should work unless A is an abstract type.

I don't understand this; if this passes by reference as Peter states in this thread, why can A not be an abstract type? - Rob.
