[Boost-users] Using bind to call a member function

Greetings,

Is it possible to use boost::bind in a for_each loop to call a member of the 
class that is making the call?  For example:

class CTest
{
public:
    void SomeFunc(const std::wstring& str) const
    {
        // Do something with str
    }

    void DoSomething() const
    {
        std::vector<std::wstring> v;
        v.push_back(L"test");
        ...
        for_each(v.begin(), v.end(), bind(&CTest::SomeFunc, _1));
    }
};

Obviously the above will not compile - and I'm pretty sure that somewhere in 
the bind, "this" will need to be passed, but I am struggling to make this 
work.  I know I could use a static member function or use a function object 
and pass it "this", but I wondered if there is a way to cut out the 
middle-man and call a member function directly in this way?
