Hi,

Simply, boost::function unifies ptr to function, ptr to member function
and function call operators into the same syntax. So, for example you can
create an STL container and fill it with the variables above
heterogenously and iterate over the container to call elements with the
same syntax, i.e.,

    (*iterator)(arguments);

I recommend taking a look at boost::signal for a nice use case.

Take care,

     emre
