Okay, I seem to have gone and answered my own question!
For some reason I couldn't do:
template class ost::TRTPSessionBase<ost::RTPBaseUDPIPv4Socket,
ost::RTPBaseUDPIPv4Socket, ost::AVPQueue>;
Because I'd get a few of the following back:
ccrtp/rtp.h: In member function 'ost::IPV4Host
ost::TRTPSessionBase<RTPDataChannel, RTCPChannel,
ServiceQueue>::getDataSender(ost::tpport_t*) const [with
RTPDataChannel = ost::RTPBaseUDPIPv4Socket, RTCPChannel =
ost::RTPBaseUDPIPv4Socket, ServiceQueue = ost::AVPQueue]':
rtpaudioport.cpp:24: instantiated from here
ccrtp/rtp.h:205: error: no matching function for call to
'ost::RTPBaseUDPIPv4Socket::getSender(ost::tpport_t*&)'
ccrtp/channel.h:114: note: candidates are: ost::IPV4Host
ost::RTPBaseUDPIPv4Socket::getSender(ost::tpport_t&) const
But I can do:
inline template class ost::TRTPSessionBase<ost::RTPBaseUDPIPv4Socket,
ost::RTPBaseUDPIPv4Socket, ost::AVPQueue>;
And that seems to generate the necessary class information.
Still seems like a bit of a mystery that this has to be specifically
generated though... is there a reason for that?
Also, I have to turn off -pedantic-errors to compile that, as it's a
non-standard extension. Is there any way I can specify an
-fno-<something> option to turn this error off:
error: ISO C++ forbids the use of 'inline' on explicit instantiations
Thanks again,
John G

An example of which bit? The only one I've made up so far is attached. It shows a basic configuration that compiles when the template instantiations are in a header file that's included in several translation units - set CFLAGS to define SUPER and/or SUB to include a particular template instantiation. However, the example attached doesn't *quite* show what I had in practice - the only difference is that when I instantiate the templates in a header file in my real library, I don't have to do anything for the superclass - that all just seems to get generated. However, in the example attached, you don't get the superclass's template information unless you instantiate it separately.

Maybe someone in the know could confirm? Perhaps you aren't using the same flag in the compilation of your program, and the code can see the template directly? Then you would have the explicitly instantiated subclass, and because you aren't telling the compiler to explicitly instantiate while compiling the executable, it takes care of implicitly instantiating anything used by the subclass? This is just a guess. Do you use that flag for compilation of all units?

Maybe someone in the > know could confirm? Fair enough - no mean feat since the compiler nicely tells you what it's missing, I guess. It's just a puzzle to me that I didn't seem to have to do any extra "instantiating" in my library but I do in a test case - I'm obviously missing something subtle in the library. > Perhaps you aren't using the same flag in the compilation of your > program, and the code can see the template directly?

In the example I sent earlier (as in the "real" case) I use -fno-implicit-templates for the library, but *not* for the program. And the program can definitely see all the template definitions as they're included in header files, so I don't think that'll be the case...

No, that's what's puzzling to me - when I compile the program, implicit instantiation is allowed, and it can see the headers, but it complains that it can't find the templates. Like I said, not a major problem (now I know what to do :p), just puzzling. John G ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 6+ messages in thread
