Hmmm, what would this involve? I know that we would need to implement an operator() that supports currying and an operator[] that supports the Lambda stuff.
I don't agree that function<> should support currying. It can lead to silent and hard to find bugs.
It seems to me that the currying operator() only gets enabled when the placeholder '_' or something involving '_' shows up. Assuming we can detect those reliably, I don't see the problem. (I'm not supporting this on broken compilers, so I'd be perfectly happy to use enable_if to do it, if necessary). Could you give an example of a problem with this? Doug
