Question

Without using Boost, how can I write a function like:

template<typename T>
void myFunc(T t)
{
   ...
}

template<>
void myFunc(someclass<T> t)
{
    myFunc(t.get());
}

Update: I may have over analyzed this. I was confused when I wanted the original

template<typename T>
void myFunc(T t)
{
   ...
}

to work with vector. I suppose I got confused because in specializations of template functions you omit the typename argument and I thought I needed the T still.

It appears one of the answers may already work.

Not sure why you associate Boost with this. Anyway:

This won’t work since T doesn’t exist here.

template<>
void myFunc(someclass<T> t);

What you probably meant is:

template < typename T >
void myFunc(someclass<T> t);
