list with different class objects

[Johan]

Hi,

How to create a list with template classes. I want to do something like this

template<class T>class Callback
{
// rest of class
};

typedef list< template<class T>Callback<T> *> CallbackList;

Later
class A
{
public :
void addCallback( ????? );
// rest of class
CallbackList cl;
};

void A :: addCallback( ???? )
{
cl.push_back< ????? >
}

How to add diffenrent class object to the linked list and what to change for
????

thanks

Johan

There is no template typedefs. You can only have a typedef of
a particular class/type. You need 'T' defined here.

Later
class A
{
public :
void addCallback( ????? );
// rest of class
CallbackList cl;
You cannot have an object of an incomplete type (even if you
could have template typedefs). You would still need to define
the "T" in your 'CallbackList'.
};

void A :: addCallback( ???? )
{
cl.push_back< ????? >
}

Look up "heterogeneous containers" on Google. And if you don't see
it, the very first question you need to ask yourself is "why am I
putting those _unrelated_ objects in the same container?" Perhaps
it will give you the idea to make them related somehow...
