+signals and slots system. Signals represent callbacks with multiple
+targets, and are also called publishers or events in similar
+systems. Signals are connected to some set of slots, which are
+callback receivers (also called event targets or subscribers), which
+are called when the signal is "emitted."</p><p>Signals and slots are managed, in that signals and slots (or,
+more properly, objects that occur as part of the slots) track all
+connections and are capable of automatically disconnecting signal/slot
+connections when either is destroyed. This enables the user to make
+signal/slot connections without expending a great effort to manage the
+lifetimes of those connections with regard to the lifetimes of all
+objects involved.</p><p>When signals are connected to multiple slots, there is a
+question regarding the relationship between the return values of the
+slots and the return value of the signals. Boost.Signals allows the
+user to specify the manner in which multiple return values are
+combined.</p></div></div><table xmlns:rev="http://www.cs.rpi.edu/~gregod/boost/tools/doc/revision" width="100%"><tr><td align="left"><small>Last revised: October 01, 2003 at 04:34:38 GMT</small></td><td align="right"><small></small></td></tr></table><div class="navfooter"><hr><table width="100%" summary="Navigation footer"><tr><td width="40%" align="left"><a accesskey="p" href="ref.ack.html"><img src="images/prev.png" alt="Prev"></a> </td><td width="20%" align="center"><a accesskey="u" href="index.html"><img src="images/up.png" alt="Up"></a></td><td width="40%" align="right"> <a accesskey="n" href="ch06s02.html"><img src="images/next.png" alt="Next"></a></td></tr><tr><td width="40%" align="left" valign="top">Acknowledgements </td><td width="20%" align="center"><a accesskey="h" href="index.html"><img src="images/home.png" alt="Home"></a></td><td width="40%" align="right" valign="top"> Tutorial</td></tr></table></div></body></html>
