Take a look at the roscpp::NodeHandle docs for the subscribe method. None of those look like they will work with a function that takes a void* argument. All seem to require a function or method that takes a ros message either by value or shared_ptr.

Note that your callback function should take some type of ROS message, not a void*. Changing CS::bvmHandler to something like CS::bvmHandler(std_msgs::Bool::Ptr flag) would probably compile, since it gives the compiler enough hints about which subscribe template to pick and instantiate.
