C++ multiple files?

I am trying to test out a new library I just made and I keep getting errors. The library contains a template class named nstack and the main file is called test.cpp. I have tried using the test funtion withing nstack.cpp and it works, but when I move it to it's own file, it won't link correctly. I have nstack.h included in both files (and it does exist, I'm not an idiot), and this is the only error:





test.cpp:(.text+0x8b) undefined reference to 'nstack%26lt;char%26gt;::nstack()'





This appears for any nstack functions I call.


I use g++ on a linux machine, and here is what I type to compile:





g++ test.cpp nstack.cpp -o nstack





Any ideas?

C++ multiple files?
You did code the (whole) template in the nstack.h header file, right? If part of it is in the cpp file that would explain why it compiles with a main() in it but not when main() is moved to another source file.
Reply:The issue is somewhat complicated to explain. Suffice it to say that you probably want to keep your header and implementation all in the header file.
