usage of std bind in c++ for functions with an argument (string)

I'm trying to create a vector of std::functions in my logger class. When I try to bind a method to my std::function like that : 

NcursesWindow log_win("Logs",LINES-1,COLS/3,0,COLS*2/3);
std::function<void(std::string)> f = std::bind(&NcursesWindow::add_string,&log_win);

the add_string function being defined like : 

void add_string(string text);

However, gcc (with the gfilt addon to try to understand the template errors) returns : 

BD Software STL Message Decryptor v3.10 for gcc 2/3/4
In file included from ./inc/ncursesui.h:6:0,
from src/ncursesui.cpp:1:

Isn't there a placeholder for the string parameter missing in your bind call?

Try this:

bind(&NcursesWindow::add_string,&log_win,std::placeholders::_1);

The member function has two parameters: the hidden this pointer and a std::string. You bind the first to the instance of your class, and the other will stay, therefore the placeholder.
