Or to be more specific, someone wrote this code: template <class X> class Wibble { public: template <class Y> void update(const Y&); }; template <class X> template <class Y> inline void Wibble<X>::update<Y>(const Y&y ) { //blah } The compiler we are currently using allows all sorts of abuse to C++, and lets this through quite happily. However, no other compiler we have found permits this, and we are trying to port the code to another system. I know we could inline the code, but there's a coding standard that we shouldn't do this, so I'd prefer not to if possible.
