[Boost-users] [function] using with CRTP

23 Jan 2008

      Hi,
This is probably a novice template question.  I am curious what
I am doing wrong here, where I'm trying to get a function object
holding a base member of a CRTP class.  gcc 4.2.3 complains about:

  type/value mismatch at argument 1 in template parameter list for 
'template<class Derived> template<template<template<class> class MHBase> 
template<class Derived> template<class> class MHBase> struct MHBase< 
<template-parameter-1-1> >::fooFO

Any help appreciated!

Thanks,
Russell

#include <boost/function.hpp>
#include <iostream>

class MHBAccessor {
     template<class> friend class MHBase;
     template<class Derived>
     static int foo(Derived& derived, int i) { return derived.foo_(i); }
};

typedef boost::function<int (int)> FooFunc;

template <class Derived>
struct MHBase {
     Derived& derived() { return static_cast<Derived&>(*this); }

     int foo(int i) { return MHBAccessor::foo(this->derived(), i); }

     template <template <class> class MHBase >
     struct fooFO {
         fooFO(MHBase<Derived>& mhb) : mhb_(mhb) {}
         void operator()(int i) { mhb_.foo(i); }
     private:
         MHBase<Derived>& mhb_;
     };

     FooFunc getFooFunc() {
         FooFunc ff = fooFO<MHBase<Derived> >(*this);
         return ff;
     }
};

class Put : public MHBase<Put>
{
     friend class MHBAccessor;
     int foo_(int i) { return i; }
};

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
     Put put;
     std::cout << put.foo(123) << std::endl;
     FooFunc ff = put.getFooFunc();
     std::cout << ff(456) << std::endl;
     return 0;
}
