Class template function

boost::log::attributes::function — A class of an attribute that acquires its value from a third-party function object.

Synopsis

// In header: <boost/log/attributes/function.hpp>

template<typename R> 
class function : public attribute {
public:
  // types
  typedef R value_type;  // The attribute value type. 

  // member classes/structs/unions

  // Base class for factory implementation.

  class impl : public attribute::impl {
  };

  // Factory implementation.
  template<typename T> 
  class impl_template : public function< R >::impl {
  public:

    // public member functions
    explicit impl_template(T const &);
    virtual attribute_value get_value();
  };

  // public member functions
  template<typename T> explicit function(T const &);
  explicit function(cast_source const &);
};

Description

The attribute calls a stored nullary function object to acquire each value. The result type of the function object is the attribute value type.

It is not recommended to use this class directly. Use make_function convenience functions to construct the attribute instead.

`function` public member functions

template<typename T> explicit function(T const & fun);

Initializing constructor

explicit function(cast_source const & source);
