Yes, we have a system (see tools/litre) that allows us to embed testing instructions in the source for our documentation. Actually the process assembles source files and a Jamfile. We then run all the tests in that Jamfile. If you look at the .rst files that document the use of lambda, you can see that those examples are tested.
Aha! Litre sounds like a good idea. How are you supposed to run it?
I have to beg ignorance; I wrote the original thing for testing the examples in "C++ Template Metaprogramming" and Daniel W. made lots of modifications and did the testing for the parameter lib; I don't remember how to use it anymore :-/. Daniel?
I'd like to try to see what happens with the .rst files that document using lambda. Is the litre test a build target in a Jamfile?
Wow; I thought we were checking that stuff in. Ignorance again. Daniel?
I'm open to whatever you and Daniel agree on.
I like the idea of replacing the lambda example with a boost::bind example as Daniel suggested above.
Daniel, can you do that?
You mean Daniel Wallin, not me, right?
