Re: [Boost-Users] Why is <boost::function>::_1 not in namespace boost?

From: "Markus Werle" <yg-boost-users@gmane.org>

Hi!

the placeholders in boost/bin/placeholders.hpp are put in an anonymous namespace.

This is awkward, since like this they are visible even in places where I do not want them to be so, e.g.:

#include <all_of_boost_lambda> #include <all_of_boost_function> // not unlikely to use both

Why would you ever need to use <boost/bind.hpp> and <boost/lambda/lambda.hpp> together? Lambda has its own bind.
