Re: [boost] Interest in non-intrusive signal/slot lib?

I understand that with Synapse you are merely making a call at a convenient point in order to emit a signal, whereas with signals2 you need to have a boost::signals2::signal object somewhere for the particular signal triggering before you can emit a signal or have connections to handle the signal. But in Synapse you also must have a signal emitter which is accesible for the event handlers making the connection to the event. This to me is equivalent to boost::signals2 having a signal object.

You can use an already existing object as the emitter, such as a HWND, or a third-party UI button object.
