Research direction

Start with boost/protect.hpp and reproduce the reported Visual Studio 2017 C++17 warning involving boost::protect(std::bind()). Trace how result_type is used there and determine the intended behavior from the surrounding bind implementation. Done means the warning is addressed without regressing the reported protect usage.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

boost::protect(std::bind()) warns about result_type which is deprecated since C++17:

2>.../boost/bind/protect.hpp(28): warning C4996: 'std::_Weak_result_type<std::_Is_memfunptr<void (__thiscall jetbrains::controller::pipe_client::* )(jetbrains::controller::pipe_client::client_context_ptr,uint32_t,jetbrains::controller::pipe_client::monitoring_context_ptr)>,void>::result_type': warning STL4007: Many result_type typedefs and all argument_type, first_argument_type, and second_argument_type typedefs are deprecated in C++17.
