template class


 
Hi roottalk-

I am unable to instrument a templated constructor in a *template*
class, and I am unable to instrument functions and/or operators that
return a reference to an object of that classes' type, unless that
reference is hidden in a typedef.

For instance:

template <class T>
class A {
public:

  template <class U>
    A(const U&); // rootcint doesnt find this

  typedef A& reference;

  template <class U>
  reference operator=(const U&); // rootcint finds this version ok

  template <class U>
  A& operator=(const U&);  // it can't find this version

}

Thanks for any hints you might have,

Troy Straszheim
