[SOLVED] vim syntax checker for C++ templates?

I've started using Syntastic to help improve my productivity when writing C++. However, I cannot seem to get it to work with C++ templates (which are usually defined and implemented in a header file). Is there a way to force Syntastic to do this? If not, does anyone know of a vim syntax checker that will?

Re: [SOLVED] vim syntax checker for C++ templates?

To enable syntax checking of headers, including templates, it turns out that you just need to add the following to your vimrc:

let g:syntastic_cpp_check_header = 1

See ~/.vim/bundle/syntastic/syntax_checkers/cpp.vim for an explanation of additional C++ options.

(I don't know how I missed this earlier. Sorry for the spurious post.)
