Your bind_mem_fun sounds very useful, not only inside Dataflow. Maybe it could be a good thing to integrate it into Boost.Bind and have Dataflow taking it there for its own use?
Thanks. It maybe could find a home outside the Dataflow library at some point (I certainly don't mind using it from someplace else), but as-is it probably wouldn't fit boost.bind - it returns a boost::function rather than a bind object, and it expects the object to be passed by reference rather than wrapped in a boost::ref or sent as a pointer or by value (that way works better for me, but goes against boost.bind convention). It also has a dependency on function_types... I think it's one of those glue things that doesn't have a clear home :-( But I agree it would be good to find it one that's less specific than the Dataflow lib. Cheers, Stjepan
