Q: Why (function) cloning?

In November and December of 2000, the issue of cloning vs. reference counting was debated at length and it was decided that cloning gave more predictable semantics. I won't rehash the discussion here, but if it cloning is incorrect for a particular application a reference-counting allocator could be used. -

Q: How do I assign from a member function?

-

Member function assignments are not included directly in boost::function because they do not conform to the syntax of function objects. Several libraries exist to wrap member functions in a function object and/or bind the first argument to the member function (the this pointer). A few libraries are described in the Boost.Function documentation. -
