passing a template class to a template function

Question

I am forgetting the syntax in this moment. Can someone please help? Basically below is what I am trying to do. I don't mind to set it up to take two template arguments if needed meaning runSchedule<SchedT, TaskT>() if this is easier. Also if you could comment on how to get the using alias to work for scheduler_type and scheduler_type::task_type to be recognized as types within the function.

Answer 1

The template<class> class SchedT in your template function argumets?

Replace with class SchedT.

The earlier syntax is for passing the template, the later a class generated by the template.

Answer 2

You don't need a template template-parameter for what you're trying to do.

template < class SchedT>
void runSchedule()  {
    typedef SchedT scheduler_type;  // <-- typedef syntax was backwards
    scheduler_type sched;
    typename scheduler_type::task_type task;
    // ^^^^^ need typename keyword when referring to nested dependent type
}
