Hi,

I am wondering: is it possible to pass pointer to member function (non
static) to initialize another class? For exmaple:

class X {
public:
  typedef double (*F)(double);
  X(F f) : f_(f) {}
private:
  F f_;
};

class Y {
public:
  Y() { t=1.0; X x(&Y::g);}
private:
  double t;
  double g(double x) {
    return(x+t);
  }
};

int main() {
  Y y;
  return(0);
}

wont's compile, g++ (3.2) gives the following messages:

In constructor `Y::Y()': no matching function for call to
`X::X(double (Y::*)(double))' : candidates are: X::X(const X&),
X::X(double (*)(double))

Thanks.
