Hi Mihai, > Can anyone tell me why the following code won't compile with g++ (4.1.2) ? Because h was not declared in the scope it is being used in. Try this: A<T>::h = t; Or try this: this->h = t; Or try this: using A<T>::h; // In B, outside of foo. h = t; > It is, however, "digested" well by g++ 3.2.2 and g++ 3.3.4 GCC 3.2.x and 3.3.x were not C++ compliant on that issue. Google for "two phase lookup". HTH, --Eljay
