The condensed code that generates the error in the last e-mail is as follows: <snip code> I realize that N defaults to 3 and all, but without making any sweeping changes, is there a way to force MSVC++ 2010 to just compile, considering this was compiling fine with MSVC++ 2008?
Your code (with fairly simple modifications) worked fine for me in VC10 and g++4.X: #include <boost/static_assert.hpp> //Added typedef and 'class' keyword below. typedef int some_type; template<typename T = some_type, std::size_t N=3> class my_class { public: my_class(const T& i0) { BOOST_STATIC_ASSERT(N==1); m_data[0]=i0; } private: T m_data[N]; }; I suspect the error you're seeing might depend on how you instantiate my_class -- as Steven said, more context is necessary. If you can post a compilable example that exhibits the problem our advice will likely be more helpful. Nate
