<div class="document" id="boost-pointer-container-library">
<h1 class="title"><img alt="Boost" src="boost.png" /> Pointer Container Library</h1>
<h2 class="subtitle" id="indirected-functions">Indirected functions</h2>
<p>It is quite common that we have two pointers and what to compare the
pointed to objects. Also, we have usually already defined how
to compare the objects. So to avoid some tedious boiler-plate code
this library defines predicates that apply an indirection before comparing.</p>
<p>When the container uses <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">void*</span></tt> internally, we can use the
class <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">void_ptr_indirect_fun</span></tt>; otherwise we use the class
<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">indirect_fun</span></tt>.</p>
<p><strong>Example:</strong></p>
<pre class="literal-block">
std::string* bar = new std::string(&quot;bar&quot;);
std::string* foo = new std::string(&quot;foo&quot;);
BOOST_ASSERT( indirect_fun&lt; std::less&lt;std::string&gt; &gt;()( bar, foo ) == true );
BOOST_ASSERT( make_indirect_fun( std::less&lt;std::string&gt;() )( foo, bar ) == false );
void* vptr1 = ptr1;
void* vptr2 = ptr2;
void_ptr_indirect_fun&lt; std::less&lt;std::string&gt;, std::string&gt; cast_fun;
BOOST_CHECK( cast_fun( vptr1, vptr2 ) == true );
</pre>

</ul>
<p><strong>Remarks:</strong></p>
<p>The class <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">indirect_fun</span></tt> will work with smart pointers such as <a class="reference" href="http://www.boost.org/libs/smart_ptr/shared_ptr.htm">boost::shared_ptr&lt;T&gt;</a>
because of the type traits <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">pointee&lt;T&gt;::type</span></tt> from the header <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">&lt;boost/pointee.hpp&gt;</span></tt>.</p>
<p><strong>Synopsis:</strong></p>
<p>Since the definition of the predicates is somewhat trivial, only the
first operation is expanded inline.</p>
