Re: [Boost-users] Using boost.signals with boost.bind

It works. Thank you! Signals2 lib is brilliant. I'll use it in my app. I hope this lib will be part of the next Boost release. With regards, Sergey Kishchenko 2008/10/14 Frank Mori Hess

Ie, if i create new signal and then try to connect to the same slot, it fails. If I use not boost::bind object but only boost::function as slot, all works ok. I can not understand, why? I used Boost 1.34.1, gcc 4.1.2

It looks like a bug to me. In boost.signals, the slot has a shared_ptr to its signal/slot connection, which I think it uses for automatic connection management. So it looks like it was coded under the assumption a slot object (or any of its copies) would not be re-used with more than 1 signal. The slot is probably (permanently) auto-disconnecting when the first signal it was connected to is destroyed. The signals2 lib, which might get reviewed soon if there are enough reviewers, doesn't show this problem. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux)
