[gcc] class specialization - what is wrong ?

[Rafal Dabrowa]

I try to write template class specialization.
I wrote the following code:

template<class T> class A {
public:
A();
};

template<> class A<char> {
public:
A();
};

template<> A<char>::A() {} // compilation error

GNU g++ compiler reports me the following error:
ts.cc:11: error: template-id `A<>' for `A<char>::A()' does not match any
template declaration

What I'm doing wrong ? How to define non-inline,
specialized class member function ?

I try to write template class specialization.
I wrote the following code:

template<class T> class A {
public:
A();
};

template<> class A<char> {
public:
A();
};

template<> A<char>::A() {} // compilation error

A<char>::A() {}

Only put the template<> in front if you are specializing a template
member.
