C++ Templates

[Fraser Ross]

If anyone has the book do you agree that on P439 there is a couple of
things saying the examples will cover 2 paramater pointers to functions
but the examples actually cover 3?

On P307 the only use of the <= operator must be wrong because the
program uses the < operator.

On 350 the footnote should also include CompoundT<T const &>.

None of this is on the erratta list online.

The first template parameter is the function return type. So it doesn't
represent a function parameter. IOW The template has three parameters to
represent a pointer to a function which has two parameters (and one
return type).

In case anyone was wondering this is the book 'C++ Templates' by
Vandervoorde and Josuttis.

The classes cover 3 function parameters and a return type. The initial
writing says they will cover 2 function parameters. Also a declaration
of class FunctionPtr with the initial text covers 2 parameters. There
seems to have been a mix up somewhere.

I checked the missing partial specialisation on P350 with a couple of
compilers.

Yes you are right. Probably it's a mistake because of where the page
break is.

Why not email the author? I once emailed Josuttis above an error and he
responded very quickly. And he didn't mind that I'd bugged him with an
error that turned out not to be an error at all.

I've not had any response recently. Theres a typo on P447 similar to
the one on P448.

Sorry about that. I generally cannot keep up with all the e-mails
coming in. I do appreciate the reports, however. (And replied to
your latest messages some minutes ago.)

Thanks again,

Daveed

(A minor nit: It's "Vandevoorde" instead of "Vandervoorde".)
