template as a friend? (Expert question:)

[Boniolopez]

Hi all, following code produces compiler error --header1-- template < class T > class myclass{ } --header2-- class myclass1{ friend class myclass;//<--this line .. } This compiles without problems with VS2003, but produce error, that myclass is allready defined as a template with VS2005Express beta1. How should I write? (friend template < class T > class myclass fails too)! Thanks in advance, boni

The code compiles fine in VC++ .NEt 2003. Try something like on the problematic compiler. template class a {}; class b { friend class a; }; Kuphryn
