[Boost-users] [lambda] Variable assignment from lambda expression

Hi all,

I have been trying out boost::lambda for the first time, and I did encounter
something which I can't seem to solve.
Simplified, what I'd like to do amounts to this:

list<int> intlist; // fill up list someway
int n;
for_each( intlist.begin(),
intlist.end(),
n = _1
);

Obviously, this fails because it implies a cast from placeholder to int,
which isn't defined. Is there some way to do
this using lambda?
