Subject: problem with template and global/static variable
Date: Sun, 12 Dec 1999 17:11:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <831gvd$sov$1@news.rrz.Uni-Koeln.DE> (raw)

I just come from comp.lang.c++ where they told me I should ask here as it
must be a gcc linker problem. I hope you can help me.

I created a template that I can only use as a member of an object. If I try
to use a static or global variable of the template type I get a linking
error (gcc 2.7):

Clients.cpp:26: undefined reference to `Collector<int>::Collector(void)'

I have no idea why. It looks like that a constructor Collector(void) is
needed? The Collector template has a public constructor Collector(). Can't
this be used for global/static variables? Do I have to code another public
constructor for Collector: a Collector(void)?
