g++ linker error: Getting undefined reference error for std::hash

I'm using the unordered_map of TR1 implementation in my code and the linker gives weird errors I cannot even decipher:

This is the error and I cannot even detect the line it's oriented开发者_StackOverflow from? From the statement:

undefined reference to `std::hash::operator()(DottedRule) const'

I guess that it's about the usage of hash. Now, the whole code is too big (if you nevertheless want to see it I may post it later), but the relevant parts are:

# include <unordered_map>       // Used as hash table
# include <stdlib.h>
# include <string.h>
# include <vector>

# define NO_SYMBOL -1

using namespace std;
using std::unordered_map;
using std::hash;

...
...
...

class DottedRule {
     public: 
         int symbol; 
         int expansion; 
         int dot_position;
 };

struct eqDottedRule
{
  bool operator()(const DottedRule & r1, const DottedRule & r2) const
  {
    return r1.symbol == r2.symbol && r1.expansion == r2.expansion && r1.dot_position == r2.dot_position;
  }
};


...
...
...
class BPCFG {

  public:


...
...
...
...

unordered_map<DottedRule, int, hash<DottedRule>, eqDottedRule> symbol_after_dot;

...
...
};

The last line I included is the only place where hash is used. Any idea what may be going on?

Thanks a lot, Onur

From www.sgi.com: "The hash template is only defined for template arguments of type char*, const char*, crope, wrope, and the built-in integral types. If you need a Hash Function with a different argument type, you must either provide your own template specialization or else use a different Hash Function."

I'm pretty sure you need to define a std:size_t hash_value(DottedRule const&) function, and then you'll be able to use hash<DottedRule>. See the boost docs for more info.

Simple hash for my class. It cals hash from string

namespace std
{
template<>
struct hash<Letter> : public __hash_base<size_t, Letter>
{
    size_t operator()(const Letter& v) const
    {
        hash<string> hasher;
        return hasher.operator ()(v.getSign());
    }
};
}
