You don't say what compiler options you used.  When I get messages like this I
retry with -XD added.

Thanks for fixing it.

and the '-XI' command line option doesn't seem to work for class templates.

   template<class T>
   struct A
   {
     void f()
     { }
   };



If I compile it with 'sc -c -cod "-XIA<int>"' no code for the instantiation
is generated.

I would prefer the standard C++ explicit template instantiation. STLport's
I/O stream library makes heavy use of it (I was just looking for an
alternative).
