template params in nested template class as a template param in a typedef

Is this possible in any compiler at all? MSVC compiler keeps throwing INTERNAL COMPILER ERRORS at me and i'm getting mad :mad:

Code:

---

template <class xA>class xB{
        typedef xA::xC<int> E;
};

---

I've reduced the code to this, it won't throw a ICE but ít says syntax error at < in the typedef :confused:

What are you trying to instantiate it with?

No instantion yet, you would go insane if you tried to understand what i'm using it for, it just doesn't compile as it is!

That code segment compiles fine on VC7 (back home now :D)

Heh.. I guess.. I need VC7 :(

keda: we already noticed that
template<class A>
class CWeird {
A::B var;
};
doesn't work, so why should this?

It does work, it's the template class member that doesn't, althought it's ANSI standardized
