why can't you just have

namespace boost{

template<typename _It,typename Val,typenameBinPred> _It lower_bound(_It itBegin,_It itEnd,const Val &x,BinPred pred){ using namespace boost; return partition_point(itBegin,itEnd,!boost::bind(pred,_1,x)); // ADL used }

}

One reason is that the above uses identifiers reserved to the implementation. ;-) -- Dave Abrahams BoostPro Computing http://www.boostpro.com
