Fixed

That is the point. `f.template apply<T>(address);` is accepted by some
compilers without `FactoryT::`

Fixed version:

struct factory {
 template <typename T>
 void * apply(void * address) const {
  return 0;
 }
};

template <typename T>
struct apply {
 template <typename FactoryT>
 void* operator()(FactoryT const& f, void * address) const {
  return f.template apply<T>(address); // error: invalid use of ‘struct
apply<T>’ why???
 }
};

int main() {
 int place;
 apply<int>()(factory(), &place);
 return 0;
}
