Subject: Re: c++/7166: Non-type template instantiation fails for pointer types
Date: Sun, 30 Jun 2002 02:58:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20020630095717.4926.qmail@sources.redhat.com> (raw)

Synopsis: Non-type template instantiation fails for pointer types

State-Changed-From-To: open->closed
State-Changed-By: nathan
State-Changed-When: Sun Jun 30 02:57:04 2002
State-Changed-Why:
    not a bug. Like the error says, you are attempting to
    instantiate a template on a non-externally visible object
    (the thing pointer to *by* strPointer). The array case
    works becuase of array->pointer decay - the thing pointed
    to is the first array element, and that does have external
    linkage. May be you mean to write
    	template <char const *&r> class Foo {};
    which would be acceptable for the first case, as then you're
    binding to the pointer variable.
