C++ :: Templates And Memory Occupancy
Dec 15, 2013
Let us consider the following two classes:
class case1
{
public:
int n;
float x;
[code]....
Now, let's suppose that I instantiate an array of 100 elements of each class:
case1 c1[100];
case2<20> c2[100];
My question is this: will c2 occupy roughly half of the memory than c1?will the value c1.n be allocated 100 times, while the value c1.n wil be allocated only once?

I'm currently learning templates -- & my logic is in a knot with what I am trying to do which is the following:
-Create a function name load
-Accepts a filename (the filename is a text file of integers)
-Open the file
-Create an array(dynamically allocating an array) filling it with the elements read in from the file & returns the array(so that the return type of the array is a pointer to the element type of the array).
//Header file:
#ifndef BUBBLE_SORT_H
#define BUBBLE_SORT_H
#include <iostream>
template <typename T>
void load(std::string filename, T *&arr, int *size);
[code].....
how to allocate memory when it comes to using templates..

When you have constant arrays, they are stored in the programme memory space. Upon execution, they are copied into the data space for easy access. To save space in the data space, it is possible to stop it from being copied. Some compilers will deal with this by just specifying the array as const, g++ has a type modifier called PROGMEM.
In any case, the problem is that I'd like to generate some data, preferably without using an external programme to do it. Hence, my question using the template system. Now I could possibly use macro metaprogramming via boost instead of template metaprogramming, and I may have to go that route. However there are limitations, especially since its numbering system is only equivalent to an unsigned byte, which I possibly could use, but could become more messy than if I use the template system that has long long types as well as a whole slue of type safety mechanisms.

Some reading through C++ code I come across template deceleration without any type , I have tested the code it compiles too
Code:
template<>
class abc {
}
similarly template usage
Code:
abc<> a;
example of such usage can be found here [URL] ....

I decided to make a linked list program using classes and templates.I implemented my linked list and added some basic functions, everything worked just fine. Then I proceeded to add templates...First, the error list:
#pragma once
template<class T>
class Node {
private:
Node* next;
[code]....
To sum up: Something's wrong with the templates that I used in "List.cpp" and what it could be.

After asking the user to input 2 values i expect my program to read them and then output whether they are equal, bigger or smaller than one another. However i am getting no output what so ever when i input the values
code below:
#include <iostream>
#include <cmath>
#include <cstring>
#include <string>
#include <string.h>
using namespace std;
int intInput1, intInput2;
float floatInput1, floatInput2;
int x, n;

Why wouldn't this code compile when adding '<double>' after the function call?
template<class T>
T add(T& a, T& b){
return a + b;
}
int main() {
int a, b;
cin >> a >> b;
cout << add<double>(a,b);
}
Compiler error:
cannot convert 'a' (type 'int') to type 'double&'

How templates are implemented internally?
Theoretically templates are nothing but a generic routines. But how it has been implemented internally?What complier exactly does?

Suppose you have a templated class, such as
template <typename T>
class Matrix {
// some stuff and some methods
};
and let's say that you have some methods that need to do some type-dependent stuff, like, for example,
template <typename T>
Matrix<T> Matrix<T>::transpose() const {
// get this->rowCount, this->columnCount
// create a Matrix that has rowCount amount of columns and columnCount amount of rows
// copy (*this)[j][k] to theMatrix[k][j] (for all of the entries in *this)
// if the entries are complex, take the complex conjugate of them all
}
Would it be good practice to check explicitly for the typename parameter (or is this, somehow, defeating the purpose of templates)? std::cout << "I know that this is a design question, but it needs to be asked... ";

I was just wondering how is this generally resolved. Let say you have this large function that runs in two modes. In the first mode it evaluates the data passed to a function as a map the the second mode it fills the map. example:
Code:
template <typename Map, typename Int>
void func(Map & map, Int i){
int z = 0;
string zz;
[Code] ....
The point is i do not want to write a large function just to include different modes so i decided to set "i" to be a mode identifier. However when i want to compile my function given two modes i get an error since the modes are not recognized (obviously). if i pass map as
Code: map<int,int>
and mode 1 i get an error here :
Code: map[z] = z; besause map
Code: map[z] expects z to be an int not string and the other way around (though in practice this cannot happen since i set the modes). So am i restricted to writing my function for both modes separately (polimorf.) or there is a way to make my example work.

What I'm trying to do is create a class for constructing an 'op tree' for parsing infix notation.
I started with a base class that uses a map of lambdas to actually calculate the operations (since they are mostly 1 line functions) of passed in integer or float values.
This base class just uses a templated T type as the lvalue and rvalue. I realized though that if I overload the math operators, +, -, etc.. I could also use the class itself as a type for the lvalue and rvalue. This lead me to think I could easily create the op tree by using Operation class members themselves as operands, which I think makes sense but I'm having some trouble expressing the code.
Heres what I have thus far
Code:
#include <map>
#include <string>
#include <algorithm>
#include <iostream>
namespace Calc {
[Code] .....
Example, if you look at the main() function I create normal operations easily with integer values. I then try to create a "tree" operation that includes 2 sub-operations as it's rvalue and lvalue, that is where I'm having some conceptual problems as far as implementing the code to do that.

For my project I have to sort 5 numbers and 5 names using a template bubble sort. I have one header for the numbers, and one for the names. This is what I have so far for my testing page:
#include "Floatheader.h"
#include "Nameheader.h"
#include <string>
int main ()
myFloat obj1;
myFloat obj2( 2.2, 5.1);
[Code] .....
I have to create a template to look like this: template<>....with a class inside the arrows. Then, I have to use bubble sort to sort the 5 names and number objects I have created. Sorting the names and numbers and also using templates?

A static method named readFromFile that takes a C-string as the first parameter, and an orderedLinkedList<MemberDO> object as the second parameter. The first argument is the filename that contains data for existing members. This method should read the data for each individual member from the input file (one line of data per member), create a new MemberDO object, and insert this object into the linked list specified in the second argument.
How do I take the second parameter in, do I need to create the Linked List first? Here is the code I have so far
#include<iostream>
#include<string>
#include <fstream>
using namespace std;
class MemberDO {
[Code] ....
What to do with the readFromFile static method?

I want to create an abstract base class having a member function that can accept a templatized structure as its parameter, something that according to C++'s rules can't be done for a good reason.
That good reason it is because an abstract base class is intended to provide interface rules to the classes that will derive from it and should not deal with data.
But how would you go about doing something like the following which is probably a reasonable design decision?
template<typename T>
class Matrix { /* ... */ };
class iFile {
public:
virtual ~iFile() {} = 0;
virtual void Process(const Matrix<T>&) = 0;

Why will i use explicit instantiation of a template, for a type? If I do not use explicit instantiation, the template is used to create the necessary function then what is the use of explicit instantiation?
template <class Any>
void Swap (Any &, Any &);
// template prototype
template <> void Swap<job>(job &, job &);
// explicit specialization for job
[Code] ....
In the above eg. explicit instantiation is done for char type. What is the use of this?? If the compiler can make use of the template to make a fn for char type.

Let's say I have a variadic type A and a non-variadic type B:
Code:
template <typename ... Args>
class A
{};
template <typename T>
class B
{};
Now, I'd like to do the following (pseudocode since I don't know how to do this yet):
Code:
template <typename ... Args>
class C: public A<B<Args1>,B<Args2>,B<Args3>....>
{};
Essentially, I'd like to take the parameter pack used for C and compose B around each element individually, then pass the result to A.
how I can do this?

I'm trying to learn how to use variadic templates, and I decided a great example would be serializing a series of types into a stringstream:
Code:
// Send a fully constructed message.
virtual void send(ostringstream &msg) = 0;
// Construct a message from the arguments and send it.
// This is the usual entry point.
template <typename ...Args>
void send(Args ...args {
[Code] ....
This works fine, so far as I can tell. However, I decided to see if I could specialize the way certain types are serialized. I tried using a Google Protocol Buffer object as an example, and added this:
Code:
// Handle a protocol buffer type while constructing a message.
template <typename ...Args>
void send(ostringstream &msg,
const google::protobuf::MessageLite &protobuf, Args ...args) {
std::string msg_str = protobuf.SerializeAsString();
msg << msg_str;
send(msg,args...);
}
I would expect this overload to be preferred over the generic T overload when a protobuf object (which always inherits from MessageLite) is passed into send() anywhere in the list. However, this is not happening. I am getting an error message to the effect that << doesn't know how to deal with my concrete type, pointing at the T overload.

#include<cstdlib>
#include<iomanip>

I'm struggling a bit to combine templates and operator overloading.
I'm writing a program that will be able to perform various matrix arithmetic at the end. However I'm stuck at the overloaded << and >> functions. I've defined them as I'm used to, without working with templates, however they are incorrect as I have defined them, and I'm not sure how to fix it.
I want to overload the stream insertion operator >> to read matrix data from either the keyboard or a file stream. I want to use >> to input a 3 x 3 matrix stored in a text file in the following format:
2 4 3
5 2 3
7 1 0
And similarly I want to overload the stream extraction operator << to output a matrix to the screen or file in the following format:
3 2 -1
1 -1 2
2 3 -1
Here is my work so far:
matrix.h
#ifndef MATRIX_H
#define MATRIX_H
#include <cassert>
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
template <class T> class Matrix;
