Question

I am trying to follow an example here:

http://www.justsoftwaresolutions.co.uk/threading/implementing-a-thread-safe-queue-using-condition-variables.html

But I dont want to inline my function definitions with my class definition.

Will I have to put

template<typename Data>
concurrent_queue<Data>::

in front of all my function defs and constructors?

Answer 1

Yes, you will, and the definitions will still need to be in the header file. This is why everyone uses inline definitions- because they basically have to be inline anyway.
