boost::bind & boost::function pointers to overloaded or templated member functions

Question

I have a callback mechanism, the classes involved are:

class App
{
    void onEvent(const MyEvent& event);
    void onEvent(const MyOtherEvent& event         


        

Answer 1

I think you need to disambiguate the address of the overloaded function. You can do this by explicitly casting the function pointer to the one with the correct parameters.

boost::bind( static_cast(&App::OnEvent) , this, _1);
