if O is compatible with the concept of a functor and O returns a type that can be converted to a float, then we are good to go -- otherwise I'd like an intelligible error.
If, for example, O is of the type 'void (*)()' I'd like it (the compiler) to spit out, "The function pointer of type O must of signature float (*)()"
Sounds like you want something like the MPL_ASSERT example at [1] along with the result_of metafunction[2]. [1] http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_39_0/libs/mpl/doc/refmanual/assert.html [2] http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_39_0/libs/utility/utility.htm#result_of HTH, ~ Scott
