I would like to know if there there a way to wrap a ROS class callback function in a method to be used as a convenience API. I know that we could possibly achieve this via adapter design pattern, but then when this is coupled with middleware constructs it is harder to see or implement.

Anyone has an idea?

You can certainly wrap ROS callback functions, however I can't think of an application for that approach, since you would need to manually provide the data the callback expects (whether message or request/response arguments). If you mean, can you reuse a generic function as a ROS callback, you can also use boost::bind to bind a function with arbitrary arguments.
