How can I use boost::bind to bind a class member function?

Question

#include <QtCore/QCoreApplication>
#include <boost/bind.hpp>
#include <boost/function.hpp>

class button
{
 public:

    boost::function<void()> onClick;
    boost::function<void(int ,double )> onClick2;
};

class player
{
 public:
    void play(int i,double o){}
    void stop(){}
};

button playButton, stopButton;
player thePlayer;

void connect()
{
    //error C2298: 'return' : illegal operation on pointer to member function expression 
    playButton.onClick2 = boost::bind(&player::play, &thePlayer);
    stopButton.onClick = boost::bind(&player::stop, &thePlayer);
}

int main(int argc, char *argv[])

{

    QCoreApplication a(argc, argv);
    connect();
    return a.exec();
}

Answer 1

boost::bind(&player::play, &thePlayer)

You need to use placeholders for the two arguments:

boost::bind(&player::play, &thePlayer, _1, _2)

The placeholders allow you to say "I'm only binding certain arguments; other arguments will be provided later."

Answer 2

如果要创建可移植的代码，请直接指定占位符的名称空间：

boost::bind( &player::play, &thePlayer, ::_1, ::_2 ); // Placeholders of boost::bind are placed in global namespace.
