Hi,

I'm using CW 8.3. I get an error from the
following snippet

template <typename T>
class A;

template <typename T>
class B
{
public:
    typedef A <T> A_;
   
    class D
    {
    public:
        A_ * foo ();
    };
};

template <typename T>
typename B <T> ::A_ * B <T> ::D::foo ()  // <- error here
{
}

/*identifier 'B::D::foo()' redeclared
was declared as: 'A<__T0> * ()'
now declared as: 'B<__T0>::A_ * ()'*/

This seems really strange to me.
- Is it normal from a language point of view ?
- Is it a CW 8.3 template parser problem ? (ISO and non-ISO checkbox
 give the same error)
- If so, is it corrected in CW 9 ?

If I'm wrong, please explain me my error or redirect me to
the relevant resource.

Many thanks,

Raf
