standard C operator as parameter to template function

[Klaus Schneider]

Dear newsgroup,

I want to call a template function with a standard operator (+, /, -, * for
double) as parameter. Here is a minimal example:

template <typename T>
T opIf(T val1, T val2, T (*op)(T,T) )
{
if (val2 != 0)
return op(val1, val2);
else
return (T)0;
}

How can I call this function with e.g. the standard / operator?

double res = opIf(10., 5., operator/);
or similar does not work.

Thanks a lot,
Klaus

template <typename T, typename Functor>
T opIf(T val1, T val2, Functor op )
{
if (val2 != 0)
return op(val1, val2);
else
return (T)0;
}

#include <functional>
#include <iostream>

int main()
{
std::cout<<opIf(6,3,std::divides<int>())<<std::end l;
std::cout<<opIf(6,3,std::multiplies<int>())<<std:: endl;
std::cout<<opIf(6,3,std::plus<int>())<<std::endl;
std::cout<<opIf(6,3,std::minus<int>())<<std::endl;
return 0;
}

What about:

template < typename T, typename Op >
T opIf ( T lhs, T rhs, Op op ) {
if ( rhs != T() ) {
return ( op( lhs, rhs ) );
} else {
return ( T() );
}
}

#include <iostream>

int main ( void ) {
std::cout << opIf( 10.0, 5.0, std::divides<double>() ) << '\n';
}

Best

double res = opIf(10., 5., operator/);
operator / is not a global operator..
used std::divides<doubleinstead.
