Have you checked out Boost.Function? You can use a boost::function instance in your class to point to the correct member function you want to call.

Alternatively, you may try to use member function pointer:

template class .... { }

Just my 5 cents...

Thanks Freddie,

boost.function does allows me (I dont think) to specify the function when the template is instantiated (it has to be done programmatically). The alterantive might, but I am unsure of the syntax and how to use it - could you add any detail?

At the moment, it seems like a robust option is to use macros, and simply redefine the function name to whatever I want - quick and simple, but not very templatey!!
