Howdy, list! When I try to compile code using STL containers whose headers contain friend template declarations, I get a compile-time error. The code that triggers this problem is an instantiation of any STL container whose header file has friend templates. For example, the code
map<int, int> theMap; produces the following compile errors: /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-linux/2.95.2/../../../../include/g++-3/stl_map.h: In instantiation of `map<int,int,less<int>,allocator<int> >': main.cpp:141: instantiated from here /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-linux/2.95.2/../../../../include/g++-3/stl_map.h:206: template-id `operator <<>' for `operator <(const map<int,int,less<int>, allocator<int> > &, const map<int,int,less<int>,allocator<int> > &)' does not match any template declaration /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-linux/2.95.2/../../../../include/g++-3/stl_map.h:205: template-id `operator ==<>' for `operator ==(const map<int,int,less<int>, allocator<int> > &, const map<int,int,less<int>,allocator<int> > &)' does not match any template declaration I've tried using the forward-declaration trick specified on gcc's faq, but I get the same error (http://gcc.gnu.org/fom_serv/cache/32.html). I'm under some pretty intense deadline pressure and consequently don't have time to investigate this thoroughly. Anyone got a fix? TIA! jason harris
