This example implies that unsafe_function is inherently more efficient, but this need not be so. An empty function may point to throw_bad_function_call instead of NULL.
Right, and what the empty boost::function does needs not be decided at compile time, it can be done in the constructor. Emil Dotchevski Reverge Studios, Inc. http://www.revergestudios.com/reblog/index.php?n=ReCode
