Re: [Boost-users] Is there still a way to explicitly compose functors ?

Hello

I just do not like the ugly syntax with using the _1 placeholder (or _2, or whatever) used in bind and lambda; is there still some other way to compose functors ? Like with compose ?

Thank you, Timothy Madden

Hello! Well if you don't like '_1' you can create your own placeholders. For example boost::lambda::placeholder1_type meaningful_name; well create a placeholder 'meaningful_name' you can use in place of '_1'. Similarly you can use placeholder2_type for _2 and so on. Benjamin
