c++ - Specialisation bug

Walter (6/22) Jan 01 2004 No, I'm not aware of it.

Matthew (5/40) Jan 21 2004 I've tried to reproduce this but failed, so best to ignore for the momen...

STLSoft has its own char_traits type, and I've recently added some
specialisations, on a function level, to it.

Unfortunately DMC++ reports that the in-class function is invalid because
its already seen a definition outside the class - the specialisation.

Is this something you're aware of? I'm including file, as I haven't time to
prepare an example atm.

Cheers

 STLSoft has its own char_traits type, and I've recently added some
 specialisations, on a function level, to it.

 Unfortunately DMC++ reports that the in-class function is invalid because
 its already seen a definition outside the class - the specialisation.

 Is this something you're aware of? I'm including file, as I haven't time

to
 prepare an example atm.

 Cheers
