Consider this code: class A{ public: class { public: int i; }; }; int main () { } This code compiles fine with VC 7.0 and g++ 3.2. It fails with Comeau online though. What does the standard have to say about unnamed nested classes? Thanks. --- [ comp.std.c++ is moderated. To submit articles, try just posting with ] [ your news-reader.

The only valid use of unnamed classes/structs is to declare a typedef or name a variable, which you haven't done in your example. Whether or not the class is a nested class is irrelevant.

VC6, VC7 and VC7.1 flag this as an error if you compile with -Za (disable extensions), and gives a wanring (non-standard extension used) if you compile with -W4. Comeau is correct according to the standard. -cd --- [ comp.std.c++ is moderated. To submit articles, try just posting with ] [ your news-reader.
