Message: [QUOTE="Larry Beck, post: 2547639"] Below is a problem I am having with templates. I am trying to use a template to avoid having multiple class methods that differ only in the return type of the pointer. I have tried putting in another parm of the typename to guarantee the uniqueness of the parm list but it didn’t help. I am getting undefined externals from the linker, one for each elemental type. Any ideas would be appreciated. Thank you, // Class declaration class UTILITY_STUFF { public: template<typename T> T* GetJunk(unsigned int x, unsigned int y); } // Method usage template<typename T> T* UTILITY_STUFF::GetJunk(unsigned int x, unsigned int y) { return (T *)junkFunction(x,y); } // Template template<typename T> bool junk(T* pDummy, unsigned int X, unsigned int Y) { UTILITY_STUFF* someJunk; nitfValue = someJunk->GetPixel<T>(X, Y); } [/QUOTE]
