I was really bothered with the idea that the template specialization would work outside the class but not in it - as you were.
You're allowed to *partially* specialize a nested class template within the outer class. But full specialization of a nested class template must be done outside the outer class. I don't know the reason for this, and I don't have a reference, sorry. It's one of those bits of C++ arcana that I have squirreled away in my brain. Wish I could get those brain cells back. -- Eric Niebler BoostPro Computing http://www.boostpro.com
