But "floatfct" was defined earlier as the type of a pointer to a function with only 1 arg float.
just passing the template argument to result_of creates a new type?
is the new type also called floatfct ?

Hicham,
as far as I understand your code you pass to result_of a new type:
typedef typename boost::result_of<floatfct(float, float)>::type resultype;
This type is a pointer to a function type, which has as return type a pointer to floatfct and as params float, float.
That's why it compiles.

Hello,
trying out Pete Becker's "c++ std lib ext" exercises,
ex1 p155
#include <iostream>
#include <typeinfo>
#include <boost/utility/result_of.hpp>
typedef float (*floatfct)(float);
int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
typedef typename boost::result_of<floatfct(float, float)>::type resultype;
std::cout<< typeid(resultype).name() << std::endl;
}
should fail, because result_of is instantiated with a callable type with 2 float args,
while it's been defined as taking 1 float arg only?
with intel10.1-MSVC8-boost1.35, it links.
