C / C++ / MFC

CHeaderCtrl* pHeaderCtrl = m_myListCtrl.GetHeaderCtrl();
 pHeaderCtrl->SetDlgCtrlID( IDC_LIST1 );
 HDITEM hdItem;
 ZeroMemory( &hdItem, sizeof( HDITEM ));
 hdItem.mask = ( HDI_FILTER );
 pHeaderCtrl->ModifyStyle( 0, HDS_FILTERBAR );
 hdItem.type = HDFT_ISSTRING;            

I have 3 functions that do sorting on a CArray.

CArrays are declared in header file:

CArray<int*, int*>m_Integer;
CArray<string*, string*>m_String;
CArray<double*, double*>m_Double;

void sortIntegers()
{

// Do sorting for m_Integer here
}

void sortStrings()
{
// DO sorting for m_String
}

void sortDouble()
{
// Do sorting for m_Double
}

Now what i want to do is, have one generic function and then pass the CArray to that.

So far what i did is,

in Header file:

void sortAll(CArray<void*, void*> m_Array);

in CPP file:

void sortAll(CArray<void*, void*> m_Array)
{
    int size = m_Array.GetSize();

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

    m_Array.GetAt(0); // Error here
    ................
    ................
}

The error is that, it needs a class type and not a void type.

I am not sure how to proceed with writing a generic function to handle all different data types in one.

Any help is welcome!

in Header in Class Declaration:
    #include <functional>
...
	bool ProvideItemData(int nItem, int nSubItem);

in .cpp:

	{
		//using namespace std::placeholders; // for `_1`
		m_ListCtrl.SetOwnerData(std::bind(&CBlockEditView::ProvideItemData, this, std::placeholders::_1));
	}

declaration in called class:

bool SetOwnerData(std::function <bool(int nItem,int nSubItem)> callback);
