Question

Is there something wrong in this code? I keep getting compilation errors. Basically I want to connect a void returning function to a signal which has a non void return type. Boost version: Release 1.46.1

#include <boost/signals2.hpp>
#include <boost/lambda/bind.hpp>
#include <boost/lambda/lambda.hpp>
using namespace boost::signals2;

void func()
{
  printf("Func called!");
}

main()
{
  signal<int(int)> sig;
  sig.connect( (boost::lambda::bind(func),  1) );
}

I get the following error while compiling:

/opt/include/boost/signals2/detail/slot_template.hpp: In member function ‘void boost::signals2::slot1<R, T1, SlotFunction>::init_slot_function(const F&) [with F = int, R = int, T1 = int, SlotFunction = boost::function<int(int)>]’:

hello-world-example.cpp:13:51:   instantiated from here
/opt/include/boost/signals2/detail/slot_template.hpp:156:9: error: invalid conversion from ‘int’ to ‘boost::function<int(int)>::clear_type*’ [-fpermissive]
/opt/include/boost/function/function_template.hpp:1110:14: error:   initializing argument 1 of ‘boost::function<R(T0)>::self_type& boost::function<R(T0)>::operator=(boost::function<R(T0)>::clear_type*) [with R = int, T0 = int, boost::function<R(T0)>::self_type = boost::function<int(int)>]’ [-fpermissive]

Thanks.

Was it helpful?

Solution

Seems to compile with no problem on Boost version 1.49
