Yes, that does work, but actually is not quite what I want to do. I made a mistake in the original example. In the corrected example, what I really want is for the second case to return "bound match," which it doesn't do. The line above the comparison doesn't compile, and even so, is not quite what I would like either. That is, I want to know which member function the func object is bound to, and don't really care about the values of the arguments (which I don't know). Thanks! int main(int, char**) { Data d(1, 2); Foo fx, fy; boost::function<void (Foo*, const Data&)> bf(&Foo::FuncTwo); if(bf == &Foo::FuncTwo) { cout << "match" <<endl; } else { cout << "no match" << endl; } boost::function<void (Foo*)> func = boost::bind(&Foo::FuncTwo, _1, d); //if(func == boost::bind(&Foo::FuncTwo, _1, d)) //doesn't compile if(func == &Foo::FuncTwo) { cout << "bound match" << endl; } else { cout << "no bound match" << endl; } return 0; } -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/Comparing-boost-bind-object-with-a-pointer-to-member-f...
