The common method of defining template classes and functions is to put the
definition and declaration into the same header file. Or at least I believe
it to be the common method and it is certainly the one I use.
This leaves me with a question.
As example, consider the following class.
template<class T>
class foo
{
public:
void my_big_func()
{
// non trivial code goes here that is something you wouldnt want
// to be inline
}
};
Now my question is, since all class functions declared and defined within
the class declaration are taken to be inline, does that mean all my template
class functions will be inline? If so how can I prevent this? and how can
I make the ones I want to be inline be inline.
My thought is I can not declare my template class memebers within the class
declaration, but this is extremely tedious and hard to maintain.

They're textually inline but not declared 'inline', and may or may not be
inlined in the compiled program, at the compiler's discretion.
... how can I make the ones I want to be inline be inline.
You cannot, but you can give the compiler a hint via 'inline'.

Define the members outside the class definition, and use inline when
you want inline. Some compilers think (or know) that they know better,
and might ignore the use of inline, and not inline or inline at their
own discretion.

You have to declare them in the class in C++, but you can define them
outside. You can't call that hard to maintain, unless you always
define all your methods inside the class definition for non-templates
too!

While thunbing through _C++ Templates, The Complete Guide_ (reckon I aught
to read it?) I came across a discussion of using templates to "unroll"
loops. I thought that looked like a good idea, so I decided to try it on
some code I'm writing. The idea is to use template objects to perform what
happens in traditional nested for() loops.
for(int row = 0; row < num_rows; row++)
{
for(int col = 0; col < num_cols; col++)

I introduced the so-called "thin-template" pattern for controlling the
code bloat caused due to template usage.
However, one of the functions in the template happens to be virtual as
well. To support thin-template, I need to make virtual function as
inline.
Now, I know that compiler would generate an out-of-line copy when it

Good Afternoon,
I recently noticed that some very simple methods of a template declared and
used in a DLL library get inlined when used by the DLL itself, but not by
other DLLs and EXEs. After some investigating, I narrowed this down to a
very odd behavior (bug?) of the VC++.NET 2003 compiler: If a class that is
declared as __declspec(dllimport) derives from a template, that template's
methods are never inlined, even if declared with...

Hi:
What rules govern the inlining of templated functions and templated
class methods?
It has always been my understanding that both templated functions and
templated class methods were always expanded inline. Recently, I
replaced an explicitly written function with one implemented using
templates (and partial-template specialisation), in the belief that the
the latter would be entirely inlined-away by the compiler, leaving the

Hi,
I am just trying to find out if there is any strong reason for not
using Templates. When we use Templates it is going to replicate the
code for different data types, thus increasing the executable size.
This should not cause any performance issue.
So, is it safe to say that if I can offered to have bigger image size I
can go ahead and use Templates with out worrying about any other
issues?

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.
