The example below is a distilled version of a problem with templates I'm having - please see compilation errors below.
#include <iostream>
#include <vector>
template <class T> struct S
{
typedef std::vector<T> SVec;
};
template <class T> std::ostream& operator<<(std::ostream& OS, const S<T>::SVec& X)
{
for (const auto& e: X) OS << e << ' ';
return OS;
}
int main()
{
S<int>::SVec v;
std::cout << v << std::endl;
}
Compiler output:
g++ -g -Wall -O4 -std=c++11 -c tc041.cpp
tc041.cpp:22:69: error: need ‘typename’ before ‘S<T>::SVec’ because ‘S<T>’ is a dependent scope
template <class T> std::ostream& operator<<(std::ostream& OS, const S<T>::SVec& X)
And so on - hundreds of lines. My compiler - g++ 5.2.1, OS - Xubuntu 4.2.0.
How to make this operator to be compiled correctly?
