Template problem

Template problem

[Michael Ben-Gershon]

I am having problems with templates on gcc-2.95.2. I am sure
that the code worked on some earlier version of gcc, but I
don't recall exactly which version it was.

I have a Range class defined as:

template <class T, T lower, T upper>
class Range
{
...
};

It has a number of non-member functions defined for the various
operators. In particular, it has the following defined:

template<class T, T lower, T upper>
ostream&
operator<< (ostream& out_stream, const Range<T, lower, upper>& the_value);

In the main program, I have

int main()
{
  Range<int, -5, 5> f = -5;

  cout << endl;
  
  cout << "Number is: " << f << endl;
...

When compiling (all the code, including the implementation of the 
function above, is in one file) I get the following error:

test_range.cc: In function `int main()':
test_range.cc:18: no match for `ostream & << Range<int,-5,5> &'
/usr/local/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/2.95.2/../../../../include/g++-3/iostream.h:77:
candidates are: class ostream & ostream::operator <<(char)
/usr/local/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/2.95.2/../../../../include/g++-3/iostream.h:78:                
class ostream & ostream::operator <<(unsigned char)
/usr/local/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/2.95.2/../../../../include/g++-3/iostream.h:79:                
class ostream & ostream::operator 

etc, etc, etc ...

The strange thing is that I have a derived class, which behaves fine!
It is defined as:

template<int lowest, int highest>
class Floor_Number : public Range<int, lowest, highest>
{
...
};

With the ostream stuff defined as:

template<int lowest, int highest>
ostream&
operator<< (ostream& out_stream, const Floor_Number<lowest, highest>&
the_value);

and is used in the test program as:

Floor_Number<-3, 10> Ff = -5;

cout << "The floor is: " << Ff << endl;

What is wrong with the Range stuff? If it is wrong, how is it that the derived
class Floor_Number is OK?

Thanks to all who responded.
typename did indeed fix it.

Re: template problem

Hi Andy,

Try this...

class C2PassScale
{
public:
     typedef typename DataClass::_DataType _DataType;
     typedef typename DataClass::_RowType _RowType;
     ....

The problem should go away.

--Eljay

template problem

[andy]

I'm having trouble compiling the following in gcc3.2:

template <class FilterClass, class DataClass = CDataCOLORREF>

class C2PassScale 
{
public:
    typedef DataClass::_DataType _DataType; //ERROR -see below
    typedef DataClass::_RowType _RowType;
    ....


//class CDataCOLORREF is declared below in the same file
class CDataCOLORREF {
public:
  typedef unsigned long_DataType;
....

ERROR above reads:
"ISO C++ forbids declaration of _DataType with no type"

Now,  if I understand the code correctly, the _DataType variable of the
C2PassScale class is typedef'ed to be the same as _DataType variable of the
the CDataCOLORREF class, i.e, long.
It looks like gcc cannot figure out what type the _DataType variable of
C2PassScale class needs to be.
I wonder if anyone can help finding a workaround or maybe a compile option I
need to turn on

Thanks in advance
Andy

So, the code is ill-formed, and GCC tells you what the problem is.

Template problem

[jpyubero]

Hi,

        I compiled the program Xvision perfetly under RedHat, but now I`ve
install Mandrake and It's no possible.
When I typing make the exit is:

 make

g++  -g -I- -I. -I~/xvision/include -I~/xvision -w -c prueba.cxx -o prueba.o
In file included from Video.hh:41,
                 from CWindow.hh:34,
                 from BasicFeature.hh:37,
                 from FTypes.hh:32,
                 from Line.hh:33,
                 from prueba.cxx:5:
Image.hh:31: return type specified for `operator XVImage<float>'
make: *** [prueba.o] Error 1


The file Image.hh is:

    #ifndef Image_hh
#define Image_hh

#include "Tracker.hh"
#include "XVImage.hh"

class Image : public XVImage<int>
{
  public:

  Image (int ncols_in = 0, int nrows_in = 0)
    : XVImage<int>(nrows_in, ncols_in)
  {}

  Image (XVImage<int>& im)
    : XVImage<int>(im)
  {}


#if (XV_OS == XV_IRIX)
  operator XVImage<float>() {
    float* floatData = new float[storesize];

    for (int i = 0; i < storesize; i++)
      floatData[i] = (float)image[i];
    XVImage<float> newImage(nrows, ncols, floatData
    delete floatData;
    return newImage;
  }
#else
  XVImage<float> operator XVImage<float>()
{                                                          //Number of line 31
    float* floatData = new float[storesize];

    for (int i = 0; i < storesize; i++)
      floatData[i] = (float)image[i];
    XVImage<float> newImage(nrows, ncols, floatData
    delete floatData;
    return newImage;
  }
#endif

};

#endif Image_hh




And the lines where is implemented in another file is:

template <class T> XVImage<T> &operator >>(const ColVector &x,XVImage<T> &y);
template <class T> XVImage<T> &operator >>(const RowVector &x,XVImage<T> &y);

Can anyboby help me?


Sorry for my english

Thanks.
