Ok, so the templated operator thing is a known issue; thanks Stjepan. With ignoring the template keyword for msvc I still get compile errors though. Removing 'const' from the operator declaration doesn't work; all the objects passed to bind are copy constructible aswell. This compiles fine on gcc 4.0.3

From the error list it looks like some kind of substitution problem. The 'portable' syntax for boost::function doesn't seem to help either.

Hi,

I'm having trouble with the following design with vs 7.1 and wondering if anyone could offer a workaround.

'template' keyword from the bind arguments gives an error novel.

I was having a similar issue with msvc8. Not sure what the underlying problem is but I ended up just using the template keyword conditionally for non-MSVC compilers. I.e., something like

#include ...

boost::bind(&bound:: #ifndef BOOST_MSVC template #endif operator&<T>, instance, obj);

It would probably be cleaner to define something like TEMPLATE_OPERATOR to template for non-msvc and to nothing for msvc, and use that instead. Maybe something like that is already defined somewhere.

HTH,
