[Boost-users] [lambda] delayed assignment to a member

[Igor R]

Hello,

How can I create a functor, which would assign to a member variable,
when invoked? I mean, something like this:

int member_;
//...

lambda::bind(my_obj::member_, this, 5);

The above bind itself compiles, but if I try to invoke it or to assign
to a function<void()>, it doesn't compile.

Thanks.

(lambda::var(member_) = 5)

Did you mean &my_obj::member_? But anyway, it doesn't compile.
My real code should look like this:

io_service.post(lambda::var(member_)=5); // posts to another thread
and performs the assignment there

No. I meant exactly what I said.

The following works fine.

#include <boost/lambda/lambda.hpp>
#include <boost/function.hpp>
#include <cassert>

struct S {
int member_;
void f() {
boost::function<void()> f_(boost::lambda::var(member_) = 5);
f_();
}
};

int main() {
S s;
s.f();
assert(s.member_ == 5);
}
