Sorry if this is a really stupid question, but here it goes:

 - Is there a way of getting one globally linkable instantiation
   of a template class?

Consider the following:

--- file foo.c ---

#include "array.h"
...
Array<int> a;
...
a.print();

--- file bar.c ---

#include "array.h"
...
Array<int> a;
...
a.print();

---------------

Now, both of the print member functions could potentially
share the same code.  However, the current g++ 2.0 implementation
generates local code only.  That is, g++ generates print() code in
foo.o and also generates print() code in bar.o -- even though the
code is identical (both are for an int template).

I'm writing a large template class and I would really like to avoid
this type of unnecessary code duplication.  Any suggestions?

Thanks...
