Re: [Boost-users] [bind] binding a boost::reference_wrapper to afunction template

Rewording from a previous post:

Are there any issues with binding a boost:ref to a free templated function? On gcc32 this generates an error:

class Test { };

template <class T> void foo(T arg_) { }

int main(int) { Test t; boost::reference_wrapper<Test> tr(t); boost::function<void()> fun1 = boost::bind(&::foo<boost::reference_wrapper<Test> >, tr); }

The problem is that tr is ref( t ) and is interpreted by bind as a request to store a reference to t. boost::bind( &foo< Test& >, tr ) should work, if this helps.
