Template Class

I would like to modify my existing class to be a template class, so that I could use it with different data formats.
What changes do I have to make to my class to make it a template class? Are there any other things(problems) to consider when I'm using a template class?

You have only to declare the template like that:

CMultiDocTemplate* pDocTemplate;
pDocTemplate = new CMultiDocTemplate(
IDR_TEXTILTYPE,
RUNTIME_CLASS(CTextilDoc),
RUNTIME_CLASS(CMDIChildWnd), // standard MDI child frame
RUNTIME_CLASS(CTextilView));
AddDocTemplate(pDocTemplate);

// Very broad example
template <class Type> class CExample
{
public:
CExample() : m_Value(0)
{
}
virtual ~CExample()
{
m_Value = 0;
}
void SetValue(const Type & rhs)
{
m_Value = rhs;
}
Type GetValue() const
{
return m_Value;
}
protected:
Type m_Value;
};
