I try to compile using g++ in linux .I get
these errors.
I have already saw the solution what you
have mentioned for a query in gcc.org.
I didnt get it correctly.Could you please
make me understand?
I would appreciate if you could help me with
some examples.
As far as i inderstand if we try to
instantiate a template class apart from the file where the template clsass has
been defined there is a issue.
You have told one workaround.But i didnt get
it.
Suppose if i include first.h in main.c
and try to instantiate the template i get errors.Where should i write as per
your suggestion?
first.h
---------
template<class T>
> class first {
> private:
> ...
> public:
> first()
> ~first()
> };
> template<class T>
> first<T>::first()
> {
> ...
> }
> class first {
> private:
> ...
> public:
> first()
> ~first()
> };
> template<class T>
> first<T>::first()
> {
> ...
> }
main.c
-------------
#include<first.h>
class main
{
main()
{
obj = new template(int);
}
};
int main()
{
main *ptr = new main();
}

I think you have come across a well known bug/limitation in g++ 2.7.x
Basically g++ fails to instantiate templates properly (or at all) if
the definition is in a separate file to the instantiation; so the
linker reports "undefined references".
The work around is to explicitly instantiate the template with
whatever classes you are are going to use in the same file as the
definition.
So in your example:
> template<class T>
> class ancestor {
> private:
> ...
> public:
> ancestor()
> ~ancestor()
> };
> template<class T>
> ancestor<T>::ancestor()
> {
> ...
> }
add this to the end of the file:
template class ancestor<int>;
