Will C++0x support __stdcall or extern “C” capture-nothing lambdas?

Question

Yesterday I was thinking about whether it would be possible to use the convenience of C++0x lambda functions to write callbacks for Windows API functions.

For exampl

Answer 1

There's no particularly good reason that this shouldn't be extended to capturing lambdas. It requires some dynamic code generation, but it shouldn't be beyond the wit of compiler writers, and it would make interop with old C APIs orders of magnitude easier--no more need to pass parameters through untyped void*s (which not all APIs even offer).
