Template Partial Specialization

[George2]

Hello everyone,


About Template Partial Specialization,

http://www.cprogramming.com/tutorial/template_specialization.html

sometimes in real case like below,

http://www.sgi.com/tech/stl/iterator_traits.html

there will be two definitions at the same time,

template <typename T>
class Foo {
}

template <typename T>
class Foo <T *>
{
}

In theory, compiler will match the latter one with first priority
compared with the 1st one.

My question is, I tihnk for basic data types it is easy to match,

example,

when we pass Foo <int*>, the latter one is matched and T is int. But
for arbitrary data types, like used data types, how could compiler
judge whether a type is pointer (when the latter template class should
be matched) or not a pointer (when the first template class should be
matched).


thanks in advance,
George

Hello everyone,


About Template Partial Specialization,

And this has precisely what relationship to the C language?

This is your third message on comp.lang.c today, as far as I can see,
which discusses something totally irrelevant to comp.lang.c

You've been pointed to a more appropriate newsgroup.

If you only post and don't read, there's little point you bothering.

Welcome to my killfile.

And in all, this is the sixth C++ question that the OP has posted to
comp.lang.c.

Welcome to my killfile.

He's looking more and more like a troll.

In which case my killfile is an ideal place for him.

Hello everyone,

Are you a troll, or just thick?

As has been pointed out, this is the sixth question about the C++
language you have asked on comp.lang.c since November 11.

Five times before you have been told your question belongs in
comp.lang.c++.

So either you are trolling, or just plain too stupid to read. Don't
bother replying as to which it is, I won't see it. Like others here,
I have given you a well-earned place in my killfile.

No, about your trolling or stupidity.
