Re: [Boost-Users] Newbie boost::bind problem

Thanks again Peter. The first solution was actually the one I was trying to compile but was getting linker errors trying to find the body of the concrete function (using MSVC 7) - wierd. Peter Dimov wrote:

std::list mylist;

I can call the for_each algorithm on this list using my function above:

std::for_each(mylist.begin(), mylist.end(), &deleter);

and it will delete all of the objects pointed to in the list. Is it possible to convert deleter into a templated function:

template<class T> void deleter(T* t) { delete t; }

and pass that into the for_each algorithm?

Yes. You can use

std::for_each(mylist.begin(), mylist.end(), &deleter<Object>);

If this doesn't work, try

#include

std::for_each(mylist.begin(), mylist.end(), boost::checked_deleter<Object>());

An alternative is to convert mylist to

std::list< boost::shared_ptr<Object > mylist;

and let it worry about the lifetime of the objects.
