c++ - Problem with a template

reply Edward A. Waugh <edward_waugh hotmail.com> writes:
Trying out a simple template in order to learn them and I
have encountered a problem.  If you put these 2 files in
the same directory and do "dmc -cpp -I. stackDemo.cpp" you
will get a working stackDemo executable.  But if you
try "dmc -cpp -I. stackDemo.cpp -DSEPARATE" you get

stack.h(88) : Error: 'operator <<' is not a member
of 'stack<int >'
--- errorlevel 1

instead.  For some reason I can't get things to compile if
the definition of << is out of the class declaration.  What
I am doing wrong?

Also, I would like to know if the declarations for the copy
constructor and assignment operator are correct:

   stack(const stack &s);
   stack & operator=(const stack &s);

Should I be using stack or stack<T> for the return and
argument types?  All of the examples that I have seen in
books are for member functions like

    void push(const T &value);
    T pop();

or constructors where this issue does not arise.  Any help
would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Edward

The thing to try is to produce the smallest possible source file that 
reproduces the problem. Often, this makes it clear where the trouble is 
coming from, and it usually isn't obvious when there's a lot of 
irrelevant source code hiding it.

operator<< is declared as a friend of stack, not as a member.

But isn't the << operator supposed to be declared as a

It works if I define it, as a friend, within the class
declaration so from now on that is what I am going to do.

It's declared as a friend, but defined as a member.

You should also switch from <iostream.h>, which is obsolete, to <iostream>.
