Boost's bind functions

[Alex Buell]

I think one of the program snippets in the Boost's Bind library is
wrong. I've just been trying to find the error in this program as
below, perhaps there's an typo in there somewhere but I can't find it.
Perhaps one of you lot might know what the typo is:

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <boost/bind.hpp>

class tracer
{
public:
tracer()
{
std::cout << "tracer::tracer()\n";
}

tracer(const tracer& other)
{
std::cout << "tracer::tracer(const tracer& other)\n";
}

tracer& operator=(const tracer& other)
{
std::cout << "tracer& tracer:perator=(const tracer&
other)\n"; return *this;
}

~tracer()
{
std::cout << "tracer::~tracer()\n";
}

void print(const std::string& s) const
{
std::cout << s << '\n';
}
};

int main()
{
tracer t;
boost::bind(&tracer:rint, t, _1)(std::string("I'm called on a
copy of t\n")); return 0;
}

What is the actual problem you're having? Nobody here is a mind-reader
(that I know of)

FWIW, your code compiles fine for me, and outputs:

[dhcp-55:~] ccox% g++ test.cpp -I /usr/local/include/boost && ./a.out
tracer::tracer()
tracer::tracer(const tracer& other)
tracer::tracer(const tracer& other)
tracer::tracer(const tracer& other)
tracer::tracer(const tracer& other)
tracer::tracer(const tracer& other)
tracer::~tracer()
tracer::~tracer()
tracer::tracer(const tracer& other)
tracer::~tracer()
tracer::~tracer()
I'm called on a copy of t

tracer::~tracer()
tracer::~tracer()
tracer::~tracer()

}

Looks fine to me. Where do you think there's a typo?

Cheers! --M

Sorry, knew I'd forgotten something. Here's the error (it just won't
compile!):
tracer.cpp: In function ‘int main()’:

FWIW, your code compiles fine for me, and outputs:

How strange! I'm using Boost 1.33.1 with G++ 4.1.1 here.

See my another post with the ouitput from the compiler for details. I'm
totally stumped coz it should compile yet it doesn't! I'm using GCC
4.1.1 with Boost 1.33.1.

FYI, this compiles fine with Dinkumware's TR1:

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <functional>

class tracer
{
public:
tracer()
{
std::cout << "tracer()\n";
}

tracer(const tracer& other)
{
std::cout << "tracer(const tracer&)\n";
}

tracer& operator=(const tracer& other)
{
std::cout << "operator=\n";
return *this;
}

~tracer()
{
std::cout << "~tracer()\n";
}

void print(const std::string& s) const
{
std::cout << s << '\n';
}

};

int main()
{
tracer t;
std::tr1::bind(&tracer:rint, t, std::tr1:laceholders::_1)
( std::string("I'm called on a copy of t\n") );
return 0;
}

You can get rid of the namespace qualifications by adding this to the
top:

using namespace std;
using namespace std::tr1;
using namespace std::tr1:laceholders;

In Boost's version, the placeholders are in an anonymous namespace
rather than std::tr1:laceholders (see
http://boost.org/libs/bind/bind.html#Interface).

I think your boost-libs isn't full-compiled.
