Is it possible to create a template function that takes a variable number of arguments, for example, in this Vector< T, C > class constructor: template < typename T, uint C > Vector< T, C >::Vector( T, ... ) { va_list arg_list; va_start( arg_list, C ); for( uint i = 0; i < C; i++ ) { m_data[ i ] = va_arg( arg_list, T...
