Sounds like a nice trip! From where are you going to Montana? Er, that is, where are you from? And would you do me a favor while you're up there and see how Phil Jackson |

Well, you said something along the lines that that the "pass through" of template parameters was very tricky and complex to understand with respect to nested templates. Accordingly, I added 2 pictures and more detailed explanations regarding this, "pass through" of template parameters in the Instruction Manual, Chapter IV - Template Parameters. There were already several pictures and a table in that same chapter. Just wanted to make sure users had some tips and tricks that they could easily remember when working with that "pass through" thing. dc http://www.decloak.com/ decloak, Inc.
