.template?

[mono]

Im implementing a template class. I created a tem.template class to implement it im using Microsoft visual c++ but all my code looks black no colors like when i write in .h or .cpp is it normal? Or is not recognizing the .template?

[Zhuge]

.template is not a standard extension, so it's just not applying any syntax coloring. Why not just use the .h extension?

[mono]

because i already have my class .h
so the implementations should be .cpp


but because i am using template class I have to create a class .h
and the implementation should be .template that is according the book

[maeriden]

.h is the extension for header files. Classes are data structures, not files

If your book says that template classes must be implemented in .template files I suggest you to burn the book and beat up the writer

jajaja ok I might be wrong, Ill read it again thanks

Ok, now for a serious post, I think I understand that you already have an header where you declared you template class
All you have to do to implement that class is creating a .cpp file, include the header where the class is declared, and implement the methods of the class

I'm guessing that you're trying something like this:

class tem {};
tem.template();

A template class should look like this:

template <class T> 
class tem
{
};

tem<int> MyObject;
