通过仿函数断开boost信号连接

Question

我正在尝试将使用不同系统的一些代码转换为使用Boost.Signals2。旧代码使用常规函数指针作为函子;通过使用仿函数调用特定方法来完成连接，并通过使用完全相同的仿函数调用另一个方法来完成断开连接。出于兼容性原因，我仍然想支持这一点，即使我知道它不是Signals2下最有效的方法。

namespace bs2 = boost::signals2;
class Foo
{
    typedef bs2::signal<void (const Foo *foo)> UpdateEvent;
    UpdateEvent m_UpdateEvent;

public:
    typedef UpdateEvent::slot_type UpdateCallback;

    bs2::connection Register(const UpdateCallback& callback)
    {
        return m_UpdateEvent.connect(callback);
    }

    void Unregister(const UpdateCallback& callback)
    {
        m_UpdateEvent.disconnect(callback);
    }
};

上述（简化）代码适用于连接，但Unregister方法无法在VS2008中编译：

那么，某种程度上函数对象无法与自身进行比较？我还尝试使用slot_function_type作为UpdateCallback，并将其显式指定为具有相同签名的boost :: function;这两个都产生了这个错误：

所以我猜它从太少的选择到太多选择。我该如何解决这个问题？

Answer 1

boost :: function没有实现operator ==，所以我们不能像f1 == f2那样进行比较。 当我们需要断开函数与信号的连接时，这会导致boost :: signal库出现问题 通过使用boost :: function作为参数。 boost :: signal尝试通过比较参数和自己的函数来查找函数，并导致错误。我的解决方案如下。还提出了其他可能的解决方案，例如存储连接....如果我的方法适合您，您应该选择它，因为它不存储任何东西，因此您不需要处理手动连接管理。

class Button {
public:

    typedef void (*EventHandler)();
    typedef boost::signal<void ()> Event;

    Button () {
    }

    virtual ~Button () {
    }

    void addClickHandler(EventHandler handler) {
        clickEvent.connect(handler);
    }

    void removeClickHandler(EventHandler handler) {
        clickEvent.disconnect(handler);
    }

    void click() {
        clickEvent();
    }

private:
    Event clickEvent;
};

void print() {
    cout << "print" << endl;
}

void app1_TestButton() {
    Button b;
    b.addClickHandler(print);
    b.click();

    b.removeClickHandler(print);
    b.click();
}
