Pass arguments to typedef?

[lawl_rock]

I am typedefing a boost::multi_array as follows:

typedef boost::multi_array<int, 3> _3DArray;

If I wanted to be able to choose what type to make that _3DArray, what would I have to do? I was imagining something along the lines of:

typedef boost::multi_array<typename t, 3> _3DArray<typename t>;

where you would simply declare the _3DArray with your chosen type. Obviously, this code does not work. How would I actually do this?
Thank you in advance
