Hi,
      I am sure this is due to some trivial mistake; the statement to
create a pointer member function insert of multi_index container fails
in the following code:

typedef multi_index_container<
     std::pair<int,int>,
     indexed_by<
     ordered_unique<member<pair<int,int>, int, &pair<int, int>::first> >
     >
     > mic;

std::pair<mic_index::iterator, bool> (mic_index::*fn)(pair<int,int>) =
&mic_index::insert; //compile error

The error is due to mismatch in signature as given in the error:
std::pair<boost::multi_index::detail::bidir_node_iterator<boost::multi_index::detail::ordered_index_node<boost::multi_index::detail::index_node_base<std::pair<int,
int>, ...
std::pair<boost::multi_index::detail::bidir_node_iterator<boost::multi_index::detail::ordered_index_node<typename
SuperMeta::type::node_type> >, bool>...

If need be I can post full error message. Appreciate any suggestions.

Thanks
