        <simpara>Adapts the function given at construction for use as a
          function object. This is useful, for example, when one needs to

          <code>std::for_each</code>.</simpara>

      </purpose>

      <description>
        <simpara>The behavior of <code>apply_visitor</code> is dependent on
        the number of arguments on which it operates (i.e., other than the
        visitor). The function behaves as follows:

          <itemizedlist>
            <listitem>Overloads accepting one operand invoke the unary function
              call operator of the given visitor on the content of the given
              <code><classname>variant</classname></code> operand.</listitem>

            <listitem>Overloads accepting two operands invoke the binary
              function call operator of the given visitor on the content of
              the given <code><classname>variant</classname></code>
              operands.</listitem>

            <listitem>The overload accepting only a visitor returns a
              <classname alt="boost::apply_visitor_delayed_t">generic function object</classname>
              that accepts either one or two arguments and invokes
              <code><functionname>apply_visitor</functionname></code> using
              these arguments and <code>visitor</code>, thus behaving as
              specified above. (This behavior is particularly useful, for
              example, when one needs to operate on each element of a sequence
              of variant objects using a standard library
              algorithm.)</listitem>
          </itemizedlist>

        </simpara>
      </description>

      <returns>
        <simpara>The overloads acccepting operands return the result of
        applying the given visitor to the content of the given operands.
        The overload accepting only a visitor return a function object, thus
        delaying application of the visitor to any operands.</simpara>
      </returns>

      <requires>
        <simpara>The given visitor must fulfill the
        <link linkend="variant.concepts.static-visitor"><emphasis>StaticVisitor</emphasis></link>
        concept requirements with respect to each of the bounded types of the
        given <code>variant</code>.</simpara>
      </requires>

      <throws>
        <simpara>The overloads accepting operands throw only if the given
        visitor throws when applied. The overload accepting only a visitor
        will not throw. (Note, however, that the returned
        <classname alt="boost::apply_visitor_delayed_t">function object</classname>
        may throw when invoked.)</simpara>
      </throws>
