hello, I have a problem when I try to instantiate static members. this code works with gcc-3.4.5 but not with gcc-4.0.2 (debian sid). here a test case with 3 files :

///// main.cpp #include #include "Test.h"

int main(int argc, char **argv) { std::cout << TestInt::member << std::endl; return 0; }

///// test.h template class Test { public:

static T member;

};

add this line here: template T Test::member;

typedef Test TestInt;

///// test.cpp #include "Test.h"

template class Test;

Either remove this line or place it before the explicit instantiation:

template<> int Test::member;

I think GCC is right here.
