Anyone here knows how I can use templates for my C/C++ plugin?
Hunting around google and also from the error messages it seems using extern “C” doesnt work on templates. Is there a way to get around this? Or must I actually explicitly declare the type instead of using templates?
Thanks for the help.
You need ‘wrapper’ functions for your templates. From another site I came across:
template<class T> T foo(T t) { ... }
extern "C" int foo_of_int(int t) { return foo(t); }
extern "C" char* foo_of_charp(char* p) { return foo(p); }
yeah I realized way too late, already spent a good time making the variables explicit.
thanks
