C++ Passing a tempate typename class as function parameter

Question

I need to pass a template class as parameter to a function but i can retrieve the typename inside the function for initialize a temporal variable

the class is declared as follows:

template <typename Type> class ListIndex_Linked

here is the inicialization of the class in the main and the call of the function

ListIndex_Linked<std::string> L;
insertion(L);

and what i'm trying to do

template <class list <typename Type>>
void insertion( list<Type>& L ) 
{
    Type& temp = L.get(0); 
    {
        int max = L.numElem();
        for ( int i = 1, ; i < max; i++ )
        {

        }
    }
}

but i get this error:

error: 'list' is not a template
void insertion( list<Type>& L )
             ^

thanks in advance for the help

Answer 1

You're not declaring list as a template template parameter correctly.

template <template <typename> class list, typename Type>
void insertion( list<Type>& L ) 
{
  ...
}
