Thanks Nick.
I tried your method, if I am right(please see the attached details),
and I still got the undefined symbol error like previous. The only
difference is "_Z9binary_opiiPFiiiE" changed to "binary_op". Could you
help me more on this. It seems to have a mixed problems here and I
guess what you've pointed out is one of them. But really, what I do
now is just try to reproduce the example, how can this fails? What my
ultimate need is wrapping up a template function taking template
function pointer as argument. Did you ever try that? Many thanks
already anyway.
