Some way of making a function accept any data type?
quote:Original post by johnnyBravo
i want to do this because i am storing integers, floats etc into a file, and iam making a class wrapper over the fstream
This should work :
class FileWrapper{ fstream out; template<class T> void write(const T & t) { out << t; }};This only works if your compiler supports member function templates (don't know if MSVC6 does this, gcc does and MSVC7+ should do it to). Off course for every datatype you wan't to 'write' you need to have an operator << defined which works on std::fstream's.
