Hi,

i have to get an aprx. 9 year old code running. back then id did
compile but now it doesn't.
i have broken down the problem to the following technique which is
used quit freq. in the code.
don't ask me why it was used or if it makes sense, i don't even know
the guy who wrote it personally.

If you have any information about:

a) why this is not working anymore.
b) when did this stop working
c) can i use a compiler switch to accept the code (will it run?)


BTW: i work under linux using gcc and/or the intel c++ compiler

would be so much appreciated .-)

int main (void)
{
TClass<int> tc(10);
cout << tc.show_B() << tc.show_A() << endl;
return 0;
}
