This was the example I tried: template class A { public: template class B { }; template <> class B { }; }; I was just trying to see whether this syntax (explicit specialization within a class definition) is accepted by the compiler. (On egcs-2.91.57 19980901). But, beyond the parsing level, when I try to use the class, it gives errors, access violations etc. I gave up. -- Best regards, Biju Thomas --- [ comp.std.c++ is moderated.
