Hi!

I had a similar question already. Please take a look at my post and answer from Dave Abrahams

With Kind Regards,

Hello. I'm trying to compile this code, but it doesn't do the trick and
I don't know why.

struct print
{
       typedef void result_type;

       template <class T>
       void operator()(const T & elem) const
       {
               std::cout << elem << std::endl;
       }
};


template <class Tuple, class UnaryF, int i = 0>
struct tuple_for_each_helper
{
private:
       Tuple & t_;
       UnaryF f_;
public:
       typedef typename UnaryF::result_type result_type;

       tuple_for_each_helper(Tuple & t, UnaryF f) : t_(t), f_(f)
       {
       }


       result_type operator()(typename
boost::enable_if<is_same<result_of<UnaryF (const Tuple &)>, void>
>::type * = 0)
       {
               f_(get<i>(t_));
               typename boost::mpl::if_c<i == tuple_size<Tuple>::value - 1,
                       tuple_for_each_helper<Tuple, UnaryF, -1>,
                       tuple_for_each_helper<Tuple, UnaryF, i + 1> >::type(t_, f_)();
       }
};


template <class Tuple, class UnaryF>
struct tuple_for_each_helper<Tuple, UnaryF, -1>
{
       typedef typename UnaryF::result_type result_type;

       tuple_for_each_helper(Tuple & t, UnaryF f) {}
       result_type operator()() {}
};


template <class Tuple, class UnaryF>
typename
result_of<UnaryF (const Tuple &)>::type tuple_for_each (Tuple & t,
UnaryF f,
typename boost::enable_if<is_same<result_of<UnaryF (const Tuple &)>,
void> >::type * = 0)
{
   tuple_for_each_helper<Tuple, UnaryF>(t, f)();
}

int main(int argc, char * argv[])
{
       tuple<int, float, string, string> t(3, 5.3, "hello", "goodbye");
       tuple_for_each(t, print());
}

And the error is:

tuple_each.cpp: In function 'int main(int, char**)':
tuple_each.cpp:99: error: no matching function for call to
'tuple_for_each(std::tr1::tuple<int, float, std::basic_string<char,
std::char_traits<char>, std::allocator<char> >, std::basic_string<char,
std::char_traits<char>, std::allocator<char> >, std::tr1::_NullClass,
std::tr1::_NullClass, std::tr1::_NullClass, std::tr1::_NullClass,
std::tr1::_NullClass, std::tr1::_NullClass>&, print)'

If I change boost::enable_if by boost::disable_if the code compiles. But
if I check typeid(typename print::result_type).name() and
typeid(result_of<UnaryF (const Tuple &)>::type).name() they are the
same. I'm using g++ 4.2.3 and boost 1.34.1.

Thanks in advance.
