and several other combinations including removal of <void>. In the above case, gcc results in /mnt/shared/Projects/boosttest/src/bounded_buffer.cpp:77: error: call of overloaded `bind(void (*)(int), boost::arg<1>&)' is ambiguous /usr/include/boost/bind.hpp:1132: note: candidates are: boost::_bi::bind_t<R, F, typename boost::_bi::list_av_1<A1>::type> boost::bind(F, A1) [with R = void, F = void (*)(int), A1 = boost::arg<1>]
I am having a very similar (I think) problem. Namely, I'm playing with the Spirit library. I started with the comma-separated-real-number-parser from the examples but wanted to use my own semantic action: void F (vector<double> &v, double x) { v.push_back(x); } the core function is: bool parse_numbers(char const* str, vector<double> &v) { return parse(str, real_p[bind<void>(&F,v,_1)] >> *(',' >> real_p[bind<void>(&F,v,_1)]), space_p).full; } on both lines with "bind" I get: test.cpp: In function `<snip>': test.cpp:19: error: call of overloaded `<snip - very long>' is ambiguous /usr/include/boost/bind/bind_cc.hpp:37: error: candidates are: <snip1> /usr/include/boost/bind.hpp:1190: error: <snip2> where <snip1> and <snip2> were indeed identical types. I also tried without <void> but then I get some return value errors. So, what am I doing wrong? thanks, Misza
