The user can specify the instantiations in their module.

Dear Phil,

Thanks for quick replying! I just read chapter 15 of the manual, but I still have a concern that do we need to specify all the instantiations explicitly, which is feasible for native types, but not for user defined types?

Best regards,

Li

You can put "template <typename DataType>" before the "chare Foo" declaration, just like in your class declaration. You'll also need to have specific instantiations declared explicitly. See the Charm++ manual for more details.

Individual entry methods can also be declared as templates.

Dear all,

I would like to know if the argument type of an entry method is a template argument, how to deal with it? The following is a simplified example:

chare Foo {
  entry void bar(<DataType> x); // <— How to express ‘DataType’?
};

template <typename DataType>
class Foo : public CBase_Foo {
public:
  void bar(DataType x);
};

The reason why I am using template on chare object is that the user of my codes can use different data type, such as double, int.

Best regards,
Li
