Hi All
I'm making use of a threadpool implementation from sourceforge, which I know is not
properly part of Boost, but I'm hoping someone has some experience which can help
me.
I'm trying to use one of the functions from pool_adaptors.hpp, which I've reproduced below.
I think this contains an error in the first template as the parameter passed as a Pool is used
as a pointer to Pool, and I'm guessing there should four functions in here, not three, as the
set seems incomplete. On either count I might be missing something.
Stripped down my code says approximately this...
#include "threadpool.hpp"
#include "boost/threadpool/pool_adaptors.hpp"
using namespace boost::threadpool;
void task( int );
vector<int> v;
v += 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9;
pool my_pool;
for_each( v.begin( ), v.end( ), bind( schedule, my_pool, _1 ) );
...and of course the problem is that 'schedule' is both templated and overloaded, so the
compiler complains it can't find/resolve 'schedule'. The usual solution is to express the
exact type of 'schedule' required, but it's huge, and uses types internal the the threadpool
library. Is there a better solution?
Thanks
