I have a lambda function in a non-static class member function, used in std::find.

//Somewhere in the header...
Gtk::ComboBoxText *optionChoiceComboBoxText = nullptr; // Initialized later in code
std::vector<OptionData> optionList;
int currentOptionPositionInList = -1; 

// In Interface.cpp
Interface::optionChangedHandler() {
currentOptionPositionInList = std::distance(optionList.begin(),
                                            find(optionList.begin(), optionList.end(), [&](OptionData const& o) {
                                                std::string s = optionChoiceComboBoxText->get_active_text();
                                                return s == o.name;
                                            })); //Error is here
}

Here is the error with notes:

So it looks like the compiler tries to assign OptionData to the lambda itself (or what is ‘const Interface::optionChangedHandler()::<lambda(const OptionData&)>’). But I do not understand where does OptionData come from, because both OptionData.name and s are std::string's.

You need to replace std::find with std::find_if.

std::find has the signature find( InputIt first, InputIt last, const T& value ), it thinks you are passing your lambda as a type T, which is why it is trying to convert your lambda to a OptionData and getting upset
