Thread: template

Here is the linked list class which is of type String:

Code:

template <class T>
class List
{
  public:
      List();
      ~List();
      void clear ();
      void makeLink (const T &nData);
	
      T nodeData;
      List *next, *head, *tail;
};

Code:

struct String
{
   char str[MAX];
   int result;
   int hashKey;

   friend ostream& operator <<(ostream& out, String& wrd);
	
   void operator= (List *head);
   int operator== (const String& wrd) const;
   int operator < (const String& wrd) const;
   int operator > (const String& wrd) const;
};

//------------------------------------------------------------------------------
void String::operator= (List *head)
{
	head=NULL;
}

Here I am trying to create an array of linked lists in the hash t

Code:

//---------------------------CONSTRUCTOR---------------------------------
template <class T>
HashTable<T>::HashTable ()
{
    size=0;
    for (long i=0; i< MAX_SIZE; i++)
         htable[i]= new List<T>;    <----array of linked list created ??
}

The error message I am receiving is :

'List' : use of class template requires template argument list
see declaration of 'List'

I am not to sure how I can overcome this problem
