Hi Dave, > When using some big libraries, they will have a folder full of > "instantiation" files which declare templates with commonly used types.

Can you do this with > g++? That should be possible using the option "-frepo": from the man-page: -frepo Enable automatic template instantiation at link time. This option also implies -fno-implicit-templates. HTH, Axel
