The View abstract base class requires concrete bases to provide a concrete implementation of the refresh() member function matching the slot signature required.
class View { public: virtual void refresh(bool) const = 0; // ... };
Here's my problem. If I change the signal to take no args using the preferred or portable syntax I get compilation errors:
class Document { public: typedef boost::signal< void () > signal_t; // ...
void append(const char* s) { m_text += s; m_sig(true); You should use m_sig(); instead!
} // ... };
class View { public: virtual void refresh() const = 0; // ... };
Compilation output (msvc-7.1):
