Well, I''m writing a few exception classes to organize my error handling code into a small class library, but I am having a problem creating a template based static member function.
The class looks like this:
class CErr{
public:
CErr(LPTSTR lpErr){...}
CErr(DWORD dwErr){...}
template
static void Throw(ARG argErr){
throw T(argErr);
}
};
class CErrDb : public CErr{
...
};
class CErrNet : public CErr{
...
};
Then I throw an exception like so:
CErr::Throw(_T("USER NOT FOUND"));
While compiling, I get the following error in VC6 -
C:\Server\Db.cpp(54) : fatal error C1001: INTERNAL COMPILER ERROR
(compiler file ''msc1.cpp'', line 1794)
Please choose the Technical Support command on the Visual C++
Help menu, or open the Technical Support help file for more information
Error executing cl.exe.
If I move the function outside of the class, the code compiles correctly, and everything works well, but I''m wondering if templates are illegal for static member functions or if I''ve found a bug in the compiler, or if I''m doing something incorrectly? (chances are I''m doing something wrong, but who knows)
Thanks in advance,

FREAKING formatting... just forget it. I hate that there isn''t a way to turn off the formatting while posting to this Board. I used the code and /code tags, but that doesn''t work.
I don''t feel like spending 4 hours learning enough HTML to figure out how to display the greater than / less than / symbols without it using them as escape sequences.
