12 Earlier efforts that have influenced the library design:
14 * The [@http://staff.cs.utu.fi/BL/ Binder Library] by Jaakko J\u00E4rvi;
16 * The [@boost:/libs/lambda/index.html Lambda Library] (now part of Boost) by
17 Jaakko J\u00E4rvi and Gary Powell (the successor to the Binder Library);
19 * [@http://more.sourceforge.net/ Extensions to the STL] by Petter Urkedal.
21 Doug Gregor suggested that a visitor mechanism would allow `bind` to
22 interoperate with a signal/slot library.
24 John Maddock fixed a MSVC-specific conflict between `bind` and the
25 [@boost:/libs/type_traits/index.html type traits library].
27 Numerous improvements were suggested during the formal review period by Ross
28 Smith, Richard Crossley, Jens Maurer, Ed Brey, and others. Review manager was
31 The precise semantics of `bind` were refined in discussions with Jaakko
34 Dave Abrahams fixed a MSVC-specific conflict between `bind` and the
35 [@boost:/libs/utility/iterator_adaptors.htm iterator adaptors library].
37 Dave Abrahams modified `bind` and `mem_fn` to support `void` returns on
40 Mac Murrett contributed the "pascal" support enabled by
41 `BOOST_BIND_ENABLE_PASCAL`.
43 The alternative `bind(type<R>(), f, ...)` syntax was inspired by a discussion
44 with Dave Abrahams and Joel de Guzman.
