But I can do it with Boost::Bind: std::sort(vec.begin(), vec.end(), boost::bind(std::less<int>(), *_1, *_2));

This looks new to me. What exactly does this do? Sort the container of pointers by applying std::less to the pointees?

Read boost::bind documentation http://www.boost.org/libs/bind/bind.html.

Have you tried compiling this? Maybe you're thinking of Boost.Lambda. Jonathan
