I got the following code producing an error which I don't understand: //some wrapper template<typename Tag> struct some {}; //some template struct template<typename Tag> struct foo { template<typename Other> struct check { //filled by specializations }; }; //explicitly specialize foo::check template<typename Tag> template<typename Other> struct foo<Tag>::check<some { //struct foo<Tag> inaccessible within this context: typedef foo<Tag> parent; }; int main() { //instantiate template to raise error foo<int>::check<some::parent p; return 0; } The typedef within the specialization is rejected because the enclosing type foo<Tag> is not accessible. This error is produced by gcc 3.3. But I have also a MinGW version 3.2 (I don't know exactly which version and I can't look it up right now) which accepts the code. So what's wrong?

Comeau online also accepts the code, so you should file a bug report, if appropriate. Dave [ See http://www.gotw.ca/resources/clcm.htm for info about ] [ comp.lang.c++.moderated.

Is that ok to specialize an enclosed template without fully specializing the enclosing one? -- Maxim Yegorushkin [ See http://www.gotw.ca/resources/clcm.htm for info about ] [ comp.lang.c++.moderated.

I downloaded/compiled/installed gcc 3.4.1 and it accepts the code, I guess they already fixed it. Strange that mingw 3.2 (which I confirmed now) also accepts the code.
