How to Pass Class Member Functions to STL Algorithms
mem_fnis less typing, but lambdas are higher performance (MSVC’s optimizer can’t see throughmem_fn’s data member) and can handle overloaded/templated member functions much more easily.
Parameter passing, by Raymond Chen, Microsoft
- If you plan on keeping the parameter anyway, then there’s no need to have separate
T const&andT&&overloads - If you’re not keeping the parameter, then you still want to have separate
