[Boost-users] bind and default function parameters

Hi!
A small example:

--------------------------------
template<typename T1, typename T2>
bool equ(T1 t1, T2 t2, double threshold) {
 return t1 == t2;
}

int _tmain(int argc, _TCHAR* argv[])
{
 int ia1[] = {1,2,3,4,5};
 cout << *find_if(ia1, ia1+5, bind<bool>(equ<int, int>, _1, 5)) << endl;
// ERROR
 return 0;
}
-----------------------------------
Compiler: VC++7.1

(Intermezzo: another question: why do I have to specify the result type for
bind in this case (bool)? Why can't it deduce it from the template function
declaration: the return type is non-dependent.)

Error message:

c:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET
2003\Vc7\include\boost\bind.hpp(246) : error C2198: 'bool (__cdecl
*)(int,int,double)' : too few arguments for call through pointer-to-function

... and the rest (I suppose they are mainly irrelevant)
