Hi,

I am having some problems with a template structure I am using and was
hoping that someone around here could give me a hint. The code I am
using works fine on the Visual Studio 8 compiler from MS but it does
not compile on the gcc.
I stripped it down as good as I could and it looks valid to me but
still it only compiles with VS8 and not with the GCC. The interesting
thing is that it does work when I only use one template parameter.
I am using gcc version 4.2.4 (Debian 4.2.4-3). Could this be a bug in
the gcc or is this simply not valid c++ code and the VS8 is only
generous?

The stripped down example:
#include<iostream>

template<
	size_t sizeValue,
	typename NumericType>
class Base
{
	protected:
		NumericType n;
	public:
		typedef NumericType val_t;

		Base(val_t t):n(t)
		{
		}
};


template<
	size_t sizeValue,
	typename unusedType
>
class Derived;


template<
	size_t sizeValue
>
class Derived<sizeValue, int> : public Base<sizeValue, int>
{
	public:
		Derived() : Base<sizeValue, val_t>(1)
		{
		}
};

int main()
{
	Derived<12, int> d;
}



The error message I get is the following

templateTest.cpp: In constructor Derived<sizeValue, int>::Derived():
templateTest.cpp:32: error: val_t was not declared in this scope
templateTest.cpp:32: error: template argument 2 is invalid
templateTest.cpp: In constructor Derived<sizeValue, int>::Derived()
[with unsigned int sizeValue = 12u]:
templateTest.cpp:39:   instantiated from here
templateTest.cpp:32: error: no matching function for call to Base<12u,
int>::Base()
templateTest.cpp:13: note: candidates are: Base<sizeValue,
NumericType>::Base(NumericType) [with unsigned int sizeValue = 12u,
NumericType = int]
templateTest.cpp:7: note:                 Base<12u, int>::Base(const
Base<12u, int>&)


Thanks in advance
