1) find_if expects a unary functor returning bool. You are passing a binary functor. _1 will be the element in the vector, but what did you think would be passed for _2?
2) CompareByVal should either be static or not have the pointer argument. There's no need to pass "this" by hand. The first argument to the bind of a method is an explicit "this" but the method is just a method, it is not aware that it has been called from Boost.bind.
