Mathew,



Since I'm the only one interested here it goes:

My suggestion goes for a different name (for example: scoped_function :-) ).
The name suggestion is just because then I would like something that acts
like scope_handle<void> but also support's the this calling convention.
Getting the this pointer into the RAII class as well as supporting a other
type of functions is something I would consider you a better person to solve
and I. :-)
The problem here is that there would be an overlap of functionality,
although in the case of this new functionality appeared in stlsoft then I
would only use scope_handle when there is some sort of recourse that I want
to manage.

I only suggest a more general approach, because I would prefer then just one way of calling a function upon a closure of scope. I would think that the Thief constructor would also be helpful; at least I'm using it.



Kind Regards

Cláudio Albuquerque
