std::function used with std::bind

suggest change

Think about a situation where we need to callback a function with arguments. std::function used with std::bind gives a very powerful design construct as shown below.

class A
{
public:
    std::function<void(int, const std::string&)> m_CbFunc = nullptr;
    void foo()
    {
        if (m_CbFunc)
        {
            m_CbFunc(100, "event fired");
        }
    }

};

class B
{
public:
    B()
    {
        auto aFunc = std::bind(&B::eventHandler, this, std::placeholders::_1, std::placeholders::_2);
        anObjA.m_CbFunc = aFunc;
    }
    void eventHandler(int i, const std::string& s)
    {
        std::cout << s << ": " << i << std::endl;
    }

    void DoSomethingOnA()
    {
        anObjA.foo();
    }

    A anObjA;
};

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
     B anObjB;
     anObjB.DoSomethingOnA();
}

Found a mistake? Have a question or improvement idea? Let me know.
