|
||
The library consists of include files only, hence there is no
|
||
installation procedure. The <tt>boost</tt> include directory
|
||
must be on the include path.
|
||
There are a number of include files that give different functionality:
|
||
|
||
|
||
<div class="itemizedlist"><ul type="disc"><li><p>
|
||
<tt>lambda/lambda.hpp</tt> defines lambda expressions for different C++
|
||
operators, see <a href="ar01s05.html#sect:operator_expressions" title="5.2. Operator expressions">Section 5.2</a>.
|
||
</p></li><li><p>
|
||
<tt>lambda/bind.hpp</tt> defines <tt>bind</tt> functions for up to 9 arguments, see <a href="ar01s05.html#sect:bind_expressions" title="5.3. Bind expressions">Section 5.3</a>.</p></li><li><p>
|
||
<tt>lambda/if.hpp</tt> defines lambda function equivalents for if statements and the conditional operator, see <a href="ar01s05.html#sect:lambda_expressions_for_control_structures" title="5.6. Lambda expressions for control structures">Section 5.6</a> (includes <tt>lambda.hpp</tt>).
|
||
</p></li><li><p>
|
||
<tt>lambda/loops.hpp</tt> defines lambda function equivalent for looping constructs, see <a href="ar01s05.html#sect:lambda_expressions_for_control_structures" title="5.6. Lambda expressions for control structures">Section 5.6</a>.
|
||
</p></li><li><p>
|
||
<tt>lambda/switch.hpp</tt> defines lambda function equivalent for the switch statement, see <a href="ar01s05.html#sect:lambda_expressions_for_control_structures" title="5.6. Lambda expressions for control structures">Section 5.6</a>.
|
||
</p></li><li><p>
|
||
<tt>lambda/construct.hpp</tt> provides tools for writing lambda expressions with constructor, destructor, new and delete invocations, see <a href="ar01s05.html#sect:construction_and_destruction" title="5.8. Construction and destruction">Section 5.8</a> (includes <tt>lambda.hpp</tt>).
|
||
</p></li><li><p>
|
||
<tt>lambda/casts.hpp</tt> provides lambda versions of different casts, as well as <tt>sizeof</tt> and <tt>typeid</tt>, see <a href="ar01s05.html#sect:cast_expressions" title="5.10.1.
|
||
Cast expressions
|
||
">Section 5.10.1</a>.
|
||
</p></li><li><p>
|
||
<tt>lambda/exceptions.hpp</tt> gives tools for throwing and catching
|
||
exceptions within lambda functions, <a href="ar01s05.html#sect:exceptions" title="5.7. Exceptions">Section 5.7</a> (includes
|
||
<tt>lambda.hpp</tt>).
|
||
</p></li><li><p>
|
||
<tt>lambda/algorithm.hpp</tt> and <tt>lambda/numeric.hpp</tt> (cf. standard <tt>algortihm</tt> and <tt>numeric</tt> headers) allow nested STL algorithm invocations, see <a href="ar01s05.html#sect:nested_stl_algorithms" title="5.11. Nesting STL algorithm invocations">Section 5.11</a>.
|
||
</p></li></ul></div>
|
||
|
||
Any other header files in the package are for internal use.
|
||
Additionally, the library depends on two other Boost Libraries, the
|
||
<span class="emphasis"><i>Tuple</i></span> [<a href="bi01.html#cit:boost::tuple" title="[tuple]">tuple</a>] and the <span class="emphasis"><i>type_traits</i></span> [<a href="bi01.html#cit:boost::type_traits" title="[type_traits]">type_traits</a>] libraries, and on the <tt>boost/ref.hpp</tt> header.
|
||
</p><p>
|
||
All definitions are placed in the namespace <tt>boost::lambda</tt> and its subnamespaces.
|
||
</p></div><div class="section"><div class="titlepage"><div><h3 class="title"><a name="id2741945"></a>2.2. Conventions used in this document</h3></div></div><p>In most code examples, we omit the namespace prefixes for names in the <tt>std</tt> and <tt>boost::lambda</tt> namespaces.
|
||
Implicit using declarations
|
||
<pre class="programlisting">
|
||
using namespace std;
|
||
using namespace boost::lambda;
|
||
</pre>
|
||
are assumed to be in effect.
