[opensource-dev] I could use a little help with boost and callbacks and stuff

[Lance Corrimal]

I guess I wasn't exactly clear...


What I need to know is how I have to modify my classes to make them 
work with boost::bind and the CallbackRegistry.

When I try to just duplicate the way that other classes in the viewer 
use to register methods in the CallbackRegistry, I get tons of boost 
errors when building, all culminating from some missing function or 
such that is called get_pointer...

So I think I need to inherit some special class or something, but I 
can't find which one!

And what do I pass to the bind() call, there are several different 
ways to call it, with one, two, or three parameters, and what's the 
_(number) that usually gets passed last?


As you can see, I don't really know what I'm doing there.

bye,
LC
