bind2nd

[PS]

Hi,
I wrote the following code to try using bind2nd.
It compiles and works fine with g++ but a Sun compiler tells me :

"test_bind2nd.cpp", line 21: Error: Cannot cast from
std::binder2nd<std::greater<int>> to bool(*)(const int&).

Could you tell me if there's something wrong with the code itself?
Thanks,
PS

I don't think there is something wrong with the program. It more
likely something is wrong with the Sun's library implementation.
Seems that the implementation has 'list::remove_if' a non-template,
but a plain function that expects a pointer to a function.

Upgrade your Sun compiler or use a better Standard Library.
