That's what I've been referring to as "auxiliary" functions. If
possible, I'd like to avoid them because I don't fancy writing hundreds
of those... I could live with calling a template. However, so far I
haven't been able to come up with one that is sufficiently easy to use...
So far I came up with the this:
template<class ArgType, class T, T&(C::*method)()>
void set_helper(T& self, ArgType& arg)
{
(self.*method)() = arg;
}
But it is a bit cumbersome to use, as it doesn't deduce its first two
template arguments on its own. Is there any way to achieve that feat?
