I have two templated function signatures. Here T can be either int or double.
template <typename T>
Box<T> f2p(Box<T> const& box, Point<T> const& pt, Orientation o)
{
...
}
template <typename T>
Box<T> p2f(Box<T> const& box, Point<T> const& pt, Orientation o)
{
...
}
Now depending upon direction, I want to call either f2p or p2f. I want to create a function pointer that points to either f2p or p2f. How do I create a function pointer to a templated function? I want to achieve the following effect:
typename <template T>
Box<T> do_transformation(Box<T> const& box, ..., int dir = 0)
{
function pointer p = dir ? pointer to f2p : pointer to p2f
return p<T>(box);
}
I try something like this but I get compile errors:
Box<T> (*p)(Box<T>, Point<T>, Orientation) = dir ? fc2p<T> : p2fc<T>
You can't have a pointer to a function template, but you can have a pointer to a specific instantiation of a function template.
Box<T>(*p)(Box<T> const&, Point<T> const&, Orientation);
p = dir ? &f2p<T> : &p2f<T>;
I try something like this but I get compile errors:
Box<T> (*p)(Box<T>, Point<T>, Orientation) = dir ? f2p<T> : p2f<T>
Take a careful look at the arguments your functions take:
template <typename T>
Box<T> f2p(Box<T> const& box, Point<T> const& pt, Orientation o)
^^^^^^^^ ^^^^^^^^
All the arguments have to match exactly . In this case:
Box<T> (*p)(Box<T> const&, Point<T> const&, Orientation) = dir ? f2p<T> : p2f<T>;
Or, simply:
auto p = dir ? f2p<T> : p2f<T>;
Unless you need pointer
for something else, you can use:
typename <template T>
Box<T> do_transformation(Box<T> const& box, ..., int dir = 0)
{
return (dir ? f2p(box, ...) : p2f(box, ...));
}
