Hey there! I've had some problems trying to make a function pointer to a specific windows callback function. It's defined as "LRESULT CALLBACK WndProc( HWND hWnd, UINT message, WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam )", however, any sore attempt I try to get the boost::bind working with it seems to fail miserably.
My latest attempt (which seems to generate the least number of errors) is this: wcex.lpfnWndProc = ( WNDPROC ) boost::bind( &WndProc, _1, _2, _3, _4 ); wcex is an instance of WNDCLASSEX (which is a windows specific function pointer). WNDPROC is defined as "typedef LRESULT __pascal* WNDPROC (HWND, UINT, WPARAM, LPARAM)" The errors is get are: error C2664: 'class boost::_bi::bind_t<long,long (__cdecl*)(struct HWND__ *,unsigned int,unsigned int,long),class boost::_bi::list4<class boost::arg<1>,class boost::arg<2>,class boost::arg<3>,class boost::arg<4> > > __cdecl boost::bind(long (__cdecl *)(struct HWND__ *,unsigned int,unsigned int,long),class boost::arg<1>,class boost::arg<2>,class boost::arg<3>,class boost::arg<4>)' : cannot convert parameter 1 from 'long (__stdcall *)(struct HWND__ *,unsigned int,unsigned int,long)' to 'long (__cdecl *)(struct HWND__ *,unsigned int,unsigned int,long)' This conversion requires a reinterpret_cast, a C-style cast or function-style cast error C2664: 'class boost::_bi::bind_t<long,long (__cdecl*)(struct HWND__ *,unsigned int,unsigned int,long),class boost::_bi::list4<class boost::arg<1>,class boost::arg<2>,class boost::arg<3>,class boost::arg<4> > > __cdecl boost::bind(long (__cdecl *)(struct HWND__ *,unsigned int,unsigned int,long),class boost::arg<1>,class boost::arg<2>,class boost::arg<3>,class boost::arg<4>)' : cannot convert parameter 1 from 'long (__stdcall *)(struct HWND__ *,unsigned int,unsigned int,long)' to 'long (__cdecl *)(struct HWND__ *,unsigned int,unsigned int,long)' This conversion requires a reinterpret_cast, a C-style cast or function-style cast. This probably is a newbie question but let me know the answer anyway ;) -- Divide _______________________________________________ Unsubscribe & other changes: http://lists.boost.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/boost
