Member function of class with template arguments and default arguments outside class - c++

Question

I want to define function outside the template class as described below.
Already tried a lot of combinations for the second argument which is a template and takes default argument as well.
template <typename T>
class CustomAllocator
{
//My custom allocator
};
template <typename T, typename Allocator = CustomAllocator<T> >
class CustomContainer
{
void push_back();
};
/*I want to define push_back outside my class, tried everything.
Almost 4 hours spent through stackoverflow, fluentcpp and all sites*/
// What should be specified for Allocator here ?
template <typename T>
void CustomContainer<T,Allocator>::push_back(T value)
{
}
//OR
template <typename T>
void CustomContainer<T,CustomAllocator<> >::push_back(T value)
{
}
I expect it to be defined outside class
Actual getting compiler error, if it is simple type I could easily mention int,float etc. in the second argument.

Answer 1

Outside of your class definition, it will be unclear to a function what type Allocator is, so you have to redeclare it just like you redeclared T
template <class T, class Allocator>
void CustomContainer<T,Allocator>::push_back(T value)
{
// ...
}
(I'm assuming that DataType should be T)
Note that your declaration of push_back, in the class should match the definition:
template <typename T, typename Allocator = CustomAllocator<T> >
class CustomContainer
{
void push_back(T);
};

Answer 2

You may not use default template arguments for a member function of a template defined outside the template definition.
From the C++ 17 Standard (17.1 Template parameters)
... A default template-argument shall not be specified in the template-
parameter-lists of the definition of a member of a class
template that appears outside of the member’s class.
So just write
template <typename T, typename Allocator>
void CustomContainer<T, Allocator>::push_back( const T &value )
{
//...
}
Pay attention to the argument of the function. Your declaration of the function does not correspond to its definition.
