Tempates. Compiler error

[Andriy]

Hello
Maybe someone knows the reason of the next compiler error notification.

template <typename T>
class TestA
{
public:
template <typename C>
void f();
};

template <>
template <typename C>
void TestA<double>::f()
{}

[BCC32 Error] E2299 Cannot generate template specialization from 'TestA<double>::f<C>()'

For completeness, which compiler version are you using?

I don't think anything is inherently wrong with your code, and think
it's probably a limitation of the compiler. Perhaps there is a
workaround, but I can't experiment right now to (try to) find one.

Well, that's not exactly an old compiler. Would you mind submitting a
bug report on this in quality-central?

Looks like a compiler bug.
