boost-function

I have a worker class like the one below: class Worker{ public: int Do(){ int ret = 100; // do stuff return ret; } } It's intended to be executed with boost::thread and boost::bind, like: Worker worker; boost::function<int()> th_func = boost::bind(&Worker::Do, &worker); boost::thread th(th_func); th.join(); My question is, how do I get the return value of Worker::Do? Thanks in advance. I don't think you can get the return value. Instead, you can store the value as a member of Worker: class Worker{ public: void Do(){ int ret = 100; // do stuff m_ReturnValue = ret; } int m_ReturnValue; } And use

The following code causes cl.exe to crash (MS VS2005). I am trying to use boost bind to create a function to a calls a method of myclass: #include "stdafx.h" #include <boost/function.hpp> #include <boost/bind.hpp> #include <functional> class myclass { public: void fun1() { printf("fun1()\n"); } void fun2(int i) { printf("fun2(%d)\n", i); } void testit() { boost::function<void ()> f1( boost::bind( &myclass::fun1, this ) ); boost::function<void (int)> f2( boost::bind( &myclass::fun2, this ) ); //fails f1(); f2(111); } }; int main(int argc, char* argv[]) { myclass mc; mc.testit(); return 0; }
