I have just spent several hours digging out a compile problem which turned out to be a conflict between Boost.Bind and Boost.Lambda, which seems to arise because the Boost.Bind placeholders (_1, etc.) are in the global namespace, so if "using namespace boost::lambda;" is in effect the Bind placeholder is used rather than the Lambda placeholder.
I wonder why the Bind placeholders are in the global namespace?
It's an historical artifact which has never been fixed.

I suspect all of us have been bitten by this at least once. Would a patch be welcome to resolve it or would it break too many historical artifacts with the change? michael -- ---------------------------------- Michael Caisse Object Modeling Designs www.objectmodelingdesigns.com
