Okay,

Here is what I’m trying to do… Right now it is compiling but failing at linking… LNK2001

I want the methods static because there are no member variables, however I also want them inline for the speedups they provide.

What is the best way to do this? Here is what I have in a nutshell:

/* foo.h */
class foo
{
    static void bar(float* in);
};

/* foo.cpp */
inline void foo::bar(float* in)
{
    // some dark magic here
}

I’m trying to do this because I want to be able to go:

foo::bar(myFloatPtr);

foo doesn’t have any member variables… it doesn’t make sense to.

    If you are calling bar from another cpp file, other than foo.cpp, it needs to be in a header file.
