Hi
[template.cpp]:
template<typename Type>
void some_templated_function();
template<>
void some_templated_function<int>()
{}
[main.d]:
extern(C++) {
void some_templated_function(Type)();
}
void main() {
some_templated_function!int;
}
compilation:
g++ -c template_with_ns.cpp
dmd main.d template.o
this WORKS! :) BUT, now I put all c++ stuff into a namespace
[template_with_ns.cpp]:
namespace some_namespace {
template<typename Type>
void some_templated_function();
template<>
void some_templated_function<int>()
{}
}
[main_with_ns.d]:
extern(C++, some_namespace) {
void some_templated_function(Type)();
}
void main() {
some_templated_function!int;
}
DOES NOT compile
undefined reference to `void some_templated_function<int>()'
nm main_with_ns.o
_Z23some_templated_functionIiEvv
nm template_with_ns.o
_ZN14some_namespace23some_templated_functionIiEEvv
It seems like dmd doesn't care about the namespace of the
template.
Can someone confirm this as a bug? or am I doing something
terrible wrong? :)
When I retry this with gdc it doesn't compile. Neither with
namespace nor without:
nm template.o:
_Z23some_templated_functionIiEvv
main.o:
_ZN23some_templated_functionIiE23some_templated_functionEv
The more I work with D, interfacing C++, the more I start to know
"mangling" :D
Have fun
