Hi All,
Not sure if this is a c++ issue or a compiler issue.
I have the following in a class:
template<class T>
bool Utility::getInp ut(T& i, T low, T up){
bool result = false;
if(cin >i){
if((i >= low)&&(i <= up)){
result = true;
}
} else {
cin.clear();
cin.ignore(1000 , '\n');
}
return result;
}
in another file and class I have :
Utility utility;
utility.getInpu t(sal, 0.0, 999999.99);
utility.getInpu t(sid, 0, 999999);
Now, if I put all this in one file it compiles no worries. But, if I compile
it as is i get an error from the linker:
[linker error] Undefined reference to 'bool
Utility::getInp ut<double>(doub le&, double, double)'
Why if the linker can't find the reference to 'bool
Utility::getInp ut<double>(doub le&, double, double)' does it not complain
about the (int&, int, int) reference that comes before it in the code? How
can I resolve the error? The only linker errors I've had before have been
related to not including files in the compile command, but this is something
else....
Thanks for your help.
Regards

can you post a minimal testcase that compiles but does not link to
demonstrate your problem?

Is the definition and implementation of this function inside the same
header? You have to put the definition into the same header or into
one that is included by this header.

The problem is not in the code.You seem to not know how to device
modular (multi-file projects) programming with C++ .Read the
documentation for your compiler.
[linker error] Undefined reference to 'bool
Utility::getInp ut<double>(doub le&, double, double)'
this means that you have refered to(called/used) an
identifier(func tion in this context) that the linker can not find in
any file. This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics |

Dear all,
I have a question about default template parameters.
I want to have a second template parameter which as a default parameter,
but depends on the first one (see below). Is something like that possible?
Some workaround?
Thank you,

Hi guys,
i give up finding a solution by reading or by trial & error. Hope, YOU
can help me! (Sorry for my rather long posting.)
Stroustrup says, that templates could be declared with
- type parameter, e.g. template<class T>
- parameters with *simple* types like int, e.g. template<int size>
- template parameter, e.g. template< template<class> class A >
the latter beeing a type specifier, not an instance of A.

Hi everyone. A very simple question. I would like to know what is
better in terms of performance. I want to use a simple function to
obtain the minimum of two values. One way could be using a macro:
#define min(a,b) ((a<b)?a:b)
I thought that another way could be to use a template function:
template <class T>
T min<T a, T b>

I developed a template matrix class back around 1992 using Borland C++ 4.5
(ancestor of C++ Builder) and haven't touched it until a few days ago. I
pulled it from the freezer and thawed it out. I built a console app using
Microsoft Visual C++ 6 (VC++) and it worked great. Only one line in the
header file had to be commented out.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:
