Function Pointer to function of a pointer

Question

I'm currently working with a custom pneumatic robot arm and was attempting to design a queue for different tasks. In the process of designing the queue I came up with the logic of having the queue store function pointers and an int to pass to the function and the queue would keep attempting to run the function in the queue until it returned true.

While doing basic functions the queue works, but when trying to implement it in the following way it fails:

  functionQueue.push(_lowerArm->waitForHoldingPosition, 100); // Lower Arm 100%

Error Message:

Arm.h:180: error: no matching function for call to 'Queue<bool (*)(int), 50>::push(<unresolved overloaded function type>, int)'
/Queue.h:201: note: candidates are: bool Queue<T, queueMaxSize>::push(T, int) [with T = bool (*)(int), int queueMaxSize = 50]

In an attempt to fix the issue I tried taking a reference of the _lowerArm->waitForHoldingPosition, but it didn't prove successful. If someone could point me into the right direction I would greatly appreciate it.

Rest of the Code:

AirCylinder lowerArm(4, 13, 7, 1, false); //Green, White
AirCylinder upperArm(10, 11, 6, 2, true); //Yellow, Orange
AirCylinder wrist(8, 9, 5, 3, true); //Red, Blue
Arm arm(&lowerArm, &upperArm, &wrist, SERVO_PIN);

loop() { /* Do Core Stuff Here */

Answer 1

Your waitForHoldingPosition is of type bool (AirCylinder::*)(int).

But your Queue template expects bool (*)(int). They are not the same.

Your Queue should be:

Queue<bool(AirCylinder::*)(int), QUEUE_SIZE> functionQueue;
