Do I have to use T as a parameter type in order for the compiler to deduce it?
For example this:
template<typename T> T max(T x[], const int& len) { T maximum(x[0]); for(int i = 1; i < len; i++) if(maximum < x[i]) maximum = x[i]; return maximum; }
If I take out the T as type of x[] it will not compile because it can't deduce T right?
Like so
template<typename T> T max(long x[], const int& len) { T maximum(x[0]); for(int i = 1; i < len; i++) if(maximum < x[i]) maximum = x[i]; return maximum; }
I tried and it wouldn't compile but I just wanna make sure that it is necessary that I always have to use my template parameter as a parameter type in order for my compiler to deduce the type?
how I want the code to look. Only problem is it doesn't work (Line 11). I have some experience with templates but I'm not a pro.
Basically I want the "Channels<3>" to be a type that I can use to specify a Cable with similar to vector<float/int> it would be Cable<Channels<2 or 3>>.
What have I messed up with the syntax?
#include <iostream> #include <vector> using namespace std;
Unless I'm missing something, it's now possible(ish)? A little concept is below, very rough around the edges. Still though, if this is valid by standard C++, why can't we have built-in support for float / double template parameters?
Pseudocode: template<typename T /*, some parameter for member_function */> class Foo { public: void someFunction() { T t; t.member_fuction(...); } }
I'm trying to make the call to T::member_function a templated value because member_function might vary by name in my scenario. Since std::mem_fn isn't a 'type', i can't do something like Foo<std::string, std::mem_fn(&std::string::clear)> foo;
I also want to take into account that member_function might have more than one parameter. That is, the first parameter will always be something known but there might be other defaulted parameters.
The only thing I can think of is to make a proxy structure, something like this:
template<class T> class Singleton; class Base; class Sub : public Base, public Singleton<Sub>;
I' using underlying auto pointers, that's why Singleton is a template class and Sub passes itself as a template parameter. I'm developing Singleton and Base and a public API allows anyone to add their own sub classes. I actually want a real triple hierarchy like this:
template<class T> class Singleton; class Base : public Singleton<Base>; class Sub : public Base;
So that external developers don't have to worry about templates and complexity. The problem with this is that my implementation in Singleton will now call the constructor of Base whenever I create an instance of Sub (since the template parameter is Base).I was wondering if this could be done by pre-processor macros:
template<class T> class Singleton; class Base : public Singleton<__CLASS_NAME__>; class Sub : public Base;
Where __CLASS_NAME__ is the class name that will be replaced by the pre-processor. Theoretically this should be possible, since the __PRETTY_ FUNCTION__ macro actually returns the class name. The problem is that one cannot do string-manipulation to remove the function name from __PRETTY_FUNCTION__.
how I can accomplish this so that the Sub class is not aware of inheriting from a Singleton<template> class?
I've been trying to create a templated class that takes a template as a parameter. I'd like to specialise this class for certain partial specializations of the template parameter but can't seem to figure out how to do it nor find anything online, (although I may be searching for the wrong thing).
As an example, say I have a class A that takes a template class with two parameters as its parameter:
template< template<class X, class Y> class Z > class A {};
I'd like to have a general version of A, for a general version of Z, but a specialisation of A for a specialisation of Z, e.g. where X is int but Y is still any type.
But when I try to build it, I get this error on line 24:could not convert template argument 'lambda' to 'void (*)(const string&) {aka void (*)(const std::basic_string<char>&)}'|
I thought the lambda expression I wrote would decay to a function pointer matching the template parameter. I can guess that the constexpr qualifier might have changed the type, but without it my compiler complains that lambda needs to be declared as constexpr...
So is there a way to pass lambda expressions as template parameters?
T1 will never be 'nothing' T2 will only be 'nothing' if T3 also is 'nothing' (if it works with T3 not being nothing, that's fine, but it won't get used that way).
Portability is a non-issue, this only needs to work in VS (2010 and higher). The 'real' solution will need up to T10, I have a solution working with SFINAE, but it takes very very long to compile and it's getting very unwieldy if you would need to add T11.
I know it's not an ideal type approach, but it is what it is, this is a necessity due to linking with a legacy API which we don't have control over.
Due to the nature of this requirement, I've made a very minimal example, which would adequately solve my issue, without resorting to use of pointers or copy constructors.
Basically I'm trying to pass an object as a reference to the template function, rather than a copy as it's seeing. I'm needing to do this without editing Obj::Call to accommodate a reference as its first parameter, as it'd break other calls.
You'll notice in the following code the object will be destroyed upon passing, while the object defined is still in-scope due to the infinite end loop.
#include <iostream> #include <string> using namespace std; class Obj { public: string name;
[Code] ....
In the past I tried ref(), which appeared to stop this happening, however it created a blank copy of the object instead.
I'm looking for a way to generate a program-wide unique value to use as a template parameter. Generating a unique value within a translation unit is pretty easy with __LINE__, but that doesn't ensure uniqueness across translation units. I thought maybe I could use __FILE__, but that can't be used as a template parameter.
I stumbled across this page: [uRL] ....
which is exactly what I want, except that the anonymous namespace trick doesn't work on all the compilers I've tried it on. (This may be due to C++11 changing anonymous namespaces to internal linkage rather than external as they did before....that page is five years old.)

My errors are at the end of the program in two function calls within the definition of the InsertByValue function. g++ does not seem to recognize NumArray as a valid parameter.
#include <iostream> #include <assert.h> using namespace std; const int CAPACITY = 20;
/* Displays the content of an int array, both the array and the size of array will be passed as parameters to the function @param array: gives the array to be displayed @param array_size: gives the number of elements in the array */ void DisplayArray (int array[], int array_size);
bool validateNumber(string& text, int min = 0, int max = -1, bool useMin = true, bool getValid = true)
The code takes the string text, and checks the make sure that the input is valid and safe to convert and use as a number. However, sometimes there is not min, and sometimes there is no max. The lack of min is done by using the parameter useMin, while the lack of max is done by max < min.
My predicament is the following call: validateNumber(text, -2);
Now, max will be used, even though I don't want it. Ideally, I would want to do something like... int max = (min - 1), ... but that doesn't work. I also can't check to see if the parameter hasn't been changed (that I know of), because the following call would make it look like it hasn't validateNumber(text, -2, -1);
So the question is, is there a way to do what I want, without having to add in a bool useMax parameter? Or is this my only option? I don't want to do that for simplicity, but if I have to, I have to.
I'm trying to implement a simple template array class, but when i came into the operator< i actually have to use a template :
my code is something like :
template<typename _Type, std::size_t _Size> class array { public :
[Code] ......
but i am having an error of shadows template param 'class _Type' is it w/ the name conflict between the array template parameter and the function template parameter ?

I have a generic template class with another template in one of its types. Now I want to specialize one of its methods for a particular (template) class, which leads to a compile error, however.
GCC ends with: :35:27: error: type/value mismatch at argument 2 in template parameter list for ‘template<class Type, template<class> class O> class Foo’ :35:27: error: expected a class template, got ‘Obj2<Type>’
What is wrong with the specialization? Can it even be achieved and how (if so)?
where 'g()' returns an object of the element type. However, the compiler is claiming, no matter how I write a call to the overload, the original template is selected and/or the overload is invalid, depending on the various ways I attempt to write said overload.
I have tried several variants on this code to no avail. Outer is in a header, along with the extern template statements, and the specializations after main are in their own cpp file. Main is in a different cpp file.
What do have to do to make this work? I cannot bring the definitions of f() into the header, and they will be different for different template parameters. Ideally, I want Test to remain a private member of Outer, though this can change if it's the only option.
