<h2>Known problems</h2>
<h4>Compiling</h4>
xlC & VAC++ require explicit template notation such as <tt>template_class<Param></tt>
where most others (conformant) accept just <tt>template_class</tt>
(inside template method bodies, etc):
<p><tt>template <class Param> class template_class {</tt> <br>
<tt>template_class foo() ; // error for xlC</tt> <br>
<tt>template_class<Param> foo() // OK</tt> <br>
<tt>.....</tt> <br>
<tt>}</tt></p>
<p>That is being worked around in this adaptation, but may cause
problems when porting template code from other platforms.</p>
<h4>Linking</h4>
Repository handling in this compilers is imperfect, so you may
experience various problems on link stage. The problems are generally of
two kinds : unresolved symbols and duplicate symbols. The latter problem
is not fatal, since the symbols are weak in that case. It may cause
unacceptable code bloat when it comes to large projects, however. To
overcome this problem, for all IBM compilers, STLport 3.2 enables separate
compilation with non-inline template members defined in .c file. <b>Note : you should enable corresponding
option in the compiler (/Ft+ or equivalent) to get use of this mode, as it is being enabled conditionally
based on the presence of builin macro ___TEMPINC__.</b><br>When compiling templates splitted to *.h/*.c
scheme, these compilers produce better results (around 50% code size reduction, less duplicate symbols).
The problem with undefined symbols is also caused by imperfect
repository handling, but it may require manual intervention. General
rule is : if you get "unresolved symbol" errors, explicit
instantiation will most likely help, for example:
<p><tt>Unresolved:</tt> <br>
<tt>__default_alloc_template<0, 0>::allocate(unsigned long)</tt> <br>
<tt>__default_alloc_template<0, 0>::deallocate(void*, unsigned
long) ></tt></p>
<p>To work around this problem, just instantiate <tt>__default_alloc_template<0,0></tt>
explicitly in some module:</p>
<p><tt>template class __default_alloc_template<0,0>;</tt></p>
<p> </p>
