How do I contact a template class (alias) defined by "template usage"?
The class B<certain X>wants to be a friend with everyone C<any,certain X>.
I stretch my hair to find how to do it.
Below is the complete code that compiles successfully until I add the problem line.
#include <string>
using namespace std;
enum EN{ EN1,EN2 };
template<EN T1,class T2> class C{
public: C(){
std::cout<<T1<<std::endl;
}
};
template<class T2> class B{
template<EN T1> using CT = C<T1,T2>;
//template<EN TX> friend class CT; //<-- error if insert this line
public: static void test(){
CT<EN1> ct;
}
};
int main() {
B<int>::test();
return 0;
}
Here is what I tried (all failed): -
template<EN T1> friend class C<T1,T2>;
template<EN TX> friend class CT;
template<typename TX> friend class CT;
template<class TX> friend class CT;
template<class TX> friend class CT<TX>;
template<typename> friend typename CT;
Question: What is the correct statement (1 line) to insert?
If possible, I want the friend statement to use CT, not C.
I read a similar question and this one , but they are easier than mine.
(I am new to C ++.)
