HI!
Recenty I was hit by the problem with precomiled template-class member
functuion. The problem is: It doesn't work.. I've tested it with gcc
3.0 and gcc 2.95.3, and the result was similar -- linker refused to
find precomiled functions which reside in other file..
I think it's know problem, because I've found a reference saying
""" Template member functions must be known to the compiler when the
template is instantiated. The current Gnu g++ compiler does not
support precompiled template classes, therefore the member functions
of templates are inline functions. """
Are there any plans to change it in future?? How can I find any
workarounds, considering that I don't want to recomplile whole prgram
each time I do small change in templated class..
thanks.
