I define a namespace with a template class with a function:
<code>
namespace NS{//a namespace
template<class T>
class C//a template class inside a namespace
{
int f();//a member of C
};
}//NS
//here is the specialization
template<>
int NS:: C<int>::f(){return 0;}// !! I placed NS::
</code>
compiler output:
$g++ x.cpp
x.cpp:14: error: specialization of 'int NS::C<T>::f() [with T = int]' in
different namespace
x.cpp:14: error: from definition of 'int NS::C<T>::f() [with T = int]'
$
I think the compiler should not gice an error.
Workaround until fix: specialization in the namespace
<code>
namespace NS{
template<>
int C<int>::f(){return 0;}
}
</code>
