Is there a way to connect a boost signal directly to another signal?

I was wondering if there is a nicer way to connect a Boost signal of one class directly to a signal of another class?

For example imagine a facade class with a bunch of members which provide their own signals. Now assume that the facade wants to expose these signals. I usually end up writing boilerplate methods which I then connect as signal handlers.

using namespace boost::signal;

class A
{
public:
  A(){};
  virtual ~A(){};

  signal<void()> signalA;
};

class B
{
public:
  B(){};
  virtual ~B(){};

  signal<void()> signalB;
};

class Facade
{
private:
  A& a;
  B& b;

public:
  Facade(A& refA, B& refB) 
  : a(refA), b(refB) 
  {
    // connect A's signal to facadeSignalA
    a.signalA.connect(boost::bind(&Facade::forwardedSignalA, this));
    // connect B's signal to facadeSignalB
    b.signalB.connect(boost::bind(&Facade::forwardedSignalB, this));
  }
  virtual ~Facade() {};

  // user visible signals
  signal<void()> facadeSignalA;
  signal<void()> facadeSignalB;

private:
  // ugly boilerplate code used to forward signals
  void forwardedSignalA()
  {
    facadeSignalA();
  }
  void forwardedSignalB()
  {
    facadeSignalB();
  }
};

Now this is not very elegant and becomes very tedious after while. Is there a way to do this without having to write these kinds of forwarding methods?

Yes, it turns out that you can "chain" signals directly. Please see this thread. It's undocumented, but it seems a very useful feature.
