Template problem no. 2

[Espen Ruud Schultz]

( This might get posted twice, because I posted with a subject another topic
already had, so the first post got lost in it. What is up with this? Is it
the news protocol or Outlook Express? )

Anybody care to explain why the below code doesn't work?

TIA!

#include <iostream>
class TypeTXT {
public:
TypeTXT( void ) { std::cout << " TypeTXT" << std::endl; }
~TypeTXT( void ) { std::cout << "~TypeTXT" << std::endl; }
};
class TypeBMP {
public:
TypeBMP( void ) { std::cout << " TypeBMP" << std::endl; }
~TypeBMP( void ) { std::cout << "~TypeBMP" << std::endl; }
};
template< class Object > DataObject {
public:
DataObject( void ) { std::cout << " DataObject" << std::endl; }
~DataObject( void ) { std::cout << "~DataObject" << std::endl; }
};
int main( void ) {
DataObject< TypeTXT > ObjectTXT;
DataObject< TypeBMP > ObjectBMP;
return 0;
}

Be patient.

Posts don't always arrive immediately on Usenet.

The template parameter Object doesn't show up anywhere inside the body
of the class DataObject. Consequently it can't influence the class
behaviour.

Do this instead

#include <iostream>
class TypeTXT {
public:
TypeTXT( void ) { std::cout << " TypeTXT" << std::endl; }
~TypeTXT( void ) { std::cout << "~TypeTXT" << std::endl; }
};
class TypeBMP {
public:
TypeBMP( void ) { std::cout << " TypeBMP" << std::endl; }
~TypeBMP( void ) { std::cout << "~TypeBMP" << std::endl; }
};
template< class Object > DataObject {
public:
DataObject( void ) { Object(); }
~DataObject( void ) { ~Object(); }
};
