pbl when changing files from .inl to .cpp

[Christel Chamaret]

Hi people,

I am a beginner for using templates in C++. I think the system is nice
but why using it when it is not necessary. Anyway, in my code I need to
remove the "template aspect" of a file for compatibility with other
parts of the code. That means, I had a file like that :


(in a file MyClass.inl)
template <class T>
MyClass<T>::MyMethod(...,...,...)
{
....
}

(in a file MyClass.hpp)
template <class T>
class MyClass
{
public:
MyClass2 MyObject2;
}


(not templated class in a file MyClass2.hpp)
class MyClass2
{
....
}


I wanted to change that by removing the templates in MyClass, so now I got:

(in a file MyClass.cpp)
MyClass::MyMethod(...,...,...)
{
....
}

(still the same, in a file MyClass.hpp)
class MyClass
{
public:
MyClass2 MyObject2;
}


(still the same, not templated class in a file MyClass2.hpp)
class MyClass2
{
....
}

My problem is that the second class (MyClass2) is not recognized anymore
by the new file MyClass.hpp and I got the following message:
error C2079: 'MyObject2' uses undefined class 'MyClass2'

Someone has an idea, please ?

Include 'MyClass2.hpp' in the 'MyClass.hpp'.
