Serializer problem writing template to fstream

[ParaToxic]

Hello guys,

I had a little idea for a data loader and saver.Normal functions uses void pointers or just void to write/read data from a binary fstream object.

But why don't you use templates for that ??

 

So I used them, but it doesn't work actually ( I'm not the pro with templates...so...)

 

Maybe someone can help me.. I get a linker error when I want to call the write function.

 

#ifndef ISERIALIZER_H_
#define ISERIALIZER_H_
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include "GlobalDefine.h"
class ISerializer
{
public:
ISerializer() : fileloaded(false) { }
~ISerializer() { }
std::fstream filestream;
bool fileloaded;
IResult Load(std::string filename);
IResult Save();
template<typename T>
void Read(T* out);
template<typename T>
void Write(T in);

};

#endif

 

#include "ISerializer.h"

IResult ISerializer::Load(std::string filename)
{
filestream.open(filename.c_str(),std::ios::in | std::ios::binary);
if(!filestream.bad())
{
 return IRESULT_OK;
} else {
 return IRESULT_ERROR;
}
}
IResult ISerializer::Save()
{
filestream.close();
fileloaded = false;
return IRESULT_OK;
}
template<typename T>
void ISerializer::Read(T* out)
{
if(fileloaded)
{
 filestream.read(&out,sizeof(T));
}
}
template<typename T>
void ISerializer::Write(T in)
{
if(fileloaded)
{
 filestream.write(in,sizeof(T));
}
}

 

Thanks
