Re: [Boost-users] function object wrapper problem

Thanks, Then I end up with a constructor that takes any type of data which can not be distinguished from my other constructors. Peter Dimov wrote:

So I do

class some_class { public: template <class T> some_class(const boost::function1& get_member)

Why not just

template<class F> some_class( F f );

?

boost::function<> is useful when you have to capture an arbitrary function object in a fixed type. Since your boost::function<> above is templated on T, it has a variable type, so you can just use the function object argument as-is.
