Hi all,
I've got a noob question to post. I've got this class named "Vector":
Code:
using namespace std;
template<class T> class Vector;
template<class T>
ostream& operator<<(ostream&, const Vector<T>&);
template <class T>
class Vector
{
friend ostream& operator<< <>(ostream&, const Vector<T>&);
protected:
T* data;
unsigned len;
public:
Vector(unsigned = 10);
Vector(const Vector<T>&);
virtual ~Vector(void);
Vector<T>& operator =(const Vector<T>&);
bool operator==(const Vector<T>&);
T& operator [](unsigned);
unsigned getLength(void) {return len;}
(...)
};
I've also got a class named "AssociativeArrayInheritance" that descends form Vector, as you can see:
Code:
template<class KeyType, class ValueType>
class AssociativeArrayInheritance : public Vector<Pair<KeyType, ValueType> >
{
public:
AssociativeArrayInheritance(unsigned size=0):Vector<Pair<KeyType, ValueType> >(size){}
ValueType& operator [](const KeyType);
};
template<class KeyType, class ValueType>
ValueType& AssociativeArrayInheritance<KeyType, ValueType>::operator [](const KeyType key)
{
unsigned i = Vector::getLength (); // HOW CAN I CALL THIS METHOD BY INHERITANCE? :| iCAN'T SEEM TO FIGURE OUT...
(...)
When compiling this file, the last line (line163) ("unsigned i = Vector::getLength ();") is getting me the following error:
(all code is in file "vector2.h")
vector2.h: In member function ‘ValueType& AssociativeArrayInheritance<KeyType, ValueType>:
perator[](KeyType)’:
vector2.h:163: error: ‘template<class T> class Vector’ used without template parameters
Can anybody help me? I know it must be something stupid & basic but I've searched the web, talked with colleagues, and by now I should be delivering this to S teacher...
