namespace ll = boost::lambda; ... = std::find_if(..., ll::bind(&Timeslice::contains, ll::bind(&LightningSlice::timeslice, ll::_1), time_));

Yes, it's ugly. Unfortunately, you can't really improve on it.

Thanks, I tried this suggestion: #include namespace ll = boost::lambda; LightningQueue::const_iterator l = std::find_if( m_lightnings.begin(), m_lightnings.end(), bind( &boost::posix_time::time_period::contains, ll::bind( &LightningSlice::timeslice, ll::_1 ), time_ ) ); But then I got this error message: ../LightningIndex.cpp: In member function 'weather::LightningSlice weather::LightningIndex::getLightningSlice(boost::posix_time::ptime)': ../LightningIndex.cpp:40: error: no matching function for call to 'bind(<unresolved overloaded function type>, const boost::lambda::lambda_functor >, boost::tuples::tuple >, boost::tuples::null_type, boost::tuples::null_type, boost::tuples::null_type, boost::tuples::null_type, boost::tuples::null_type, boost::tuples::null_type, boost::tuples::null_type, boost::tuples::null_type> > >, boost::posix_time::ptime&)' This is even more confusion than the first error message. Greetings, Sven

Sebastian _______________________________________________ Thanks,

I tried this suggestion:

#include namespace ll = boost::lambda;

LightningQueue::const_iterator l = std::find_if( m_lightnings.begin(), m_lightnings.end(), bind(&boost::posix_time::time_period::contains, ll::bind(&LightningSlice::timeslice, ll::_1 ), time_ ) );

But then I got this error message:

../LightningIndex.cpp: In member function 'weather::LightningSlice weather::LightningIndex::getLightningSlice(boost::posix_time::ptime)': ../LightningIndex.cpp:40: error: no matching function for call to 'bind(<unresolved overloaded function type>, const boost::lambda::lambda_functor >, boost::tuples::tuple >, boost::tuples::null_type, boost::tuples::null_type, boost::tuples::null_type, boost::tuples::null_type, boost::tuples::null_type, boost::tuples::null_type, boost::tuples::null_type, boost::tuples::null_type> > >, boost::posix_time::ptime&)'

This is even more confusion than the first error message. The problem is that boost::posix_time::time_period::contains is overloaded. Thus the compiler can not decide which function address you mean. The solution I usually go with is the following:

bool (boost::posix_time::time_period::*f)(boost::posix_time::time_period const &) const = &boost::posix_time::time_period::contains; or: bool (boost::posix_time::time_period::*f)(boost::posix_time::ptime const &) const = &boost::posix_time::time_period::contains; Depending on what type time_ actually is ... and then continue with: LightningQueue::const_iterator l = std::find_if( m_lightnings.begin(), m_lightnings.end(), bind(f, ll::bind(&LightningSlice::timeslice, ll::_1 ), time_ ) );
