I don't know if I will use in my code the proposed scope_guard interface having as parameters a function and its arguments, as in
boost::scope_guard kanyewest(CloseHandleIfNot, dismiss, handle);
Vincente: I am a little confused. Are you suggesting that you will write these new classes, or that I should put this in mine? The one I sent originally has a dismiss method, it's just called Cancel(). It also has operator=. And while it would only work with C++11 compilers using lambdas, if you were using boost::bind it would work with C++03 compilers as well. Since I proposed this I will work on changing my two classes (RAIIWrapper and RAIIFunction) so that they comply better with the C++ Library standards (nomenclature, etc.) and I will submit that for review. I am completely open however to putting it an existing library, though I think it might help if we Boost had an RAII library that contained these two classes AND in the documentation links to other RAII containers like scoped_ptr, shared_ptr, and Boost.ScopedExit. -Andrew Sandoval
