| Earlier efforts that have influenced the library design: |
| |
| * The [@http://staff.cs.utu.fi/BL/ Binder Library] by Jaakko J\u00E4rvi; |
| |
| * The [@boost:/libs/lambda/index.html Lambda Library] (now part of Boost) by |
| Jaakko J\u00E4rvi and Gary Powell (the successor to the Binder Library); |
| |
| * [@http://more.sourceforge.net/ Extensions to the STL] by Petter Urkedal. |
| |
| Doug Gregor suggested that a visitor mechanism would allow `bind` to |
| interoperate with a signal/slot library. |
| |
| John Maddock fixed a MSVC-specific conflict between `bind` and the |
| [@boost:/libs/type_traits/index.html type traits library]. |
| |
| Numerous improvements were suggested during the formal review period by Ross |
| Smith, Richard Crossley, Jens Maurer, Ed Brey, and others. Review manager was |
| Darin Adler. |
| |
| The precise semantics of `bind` were refined in discussions with Jaakko |
| J\u00E4rvi. |
| |
| Dave Abrahams fixed a MSVC-specific conflict between `bind` and the |
| [@boost:/libs/utility/iterator_adaptors.htm iterator adaptors library]. |
| |
| Dave Abrahams modified `bind` and `mem_fn` to support `void` returns on |
| deficient compilers. |
| |
| Mac Murrett contributed the "pascal" support enabled by |
| `BOOST_BIND_ENABLE_PASCAL`. |
| |
| The alternative `bind(type<R>(), f, ...)` syntax was inspired by a discussion |
| with Dave Abrahams and Joel de Guzman. |
| |
| This documentation was ported to Quickbook by Agustín Bergé. |
