If I do partial specialization I got different results from clang and g++.
template < typename T>
class X
{
public:
T i;
X(T _i): i{_i}{}
operator T(){ return i; }
};
template < typename T2 >
class Y
{
public:
template <typename T>
static X<T> x_in_y;
};
template< typename T2>
template< typename T>
X<T> Y<T2>::x_in_y{200};
template<>
template<>
X<float> Y<int>::x_in_y<float>{100};
template<>
template<>
X<int> Y<int>::x_in_y<int>{101};
template< >
template< typename T >
X<T> Y<bool>::x_in_y{77};
int main()
{
std::cout << Y<int>::x_in_y<int> << std::endl;
std::cout << Y<int>::x_in_y<float> << std::endl;
std::cout << Y<float>::x_in_y<float> << std::endl;
std::cout << Y<bool>::x_in_y<float> << std::endl;
}
I compiled with g++ and clang and got different behavior:
[~]$ g++ main.cpp
[~]$ a.out
101
100
200
200
[~]$ clang++ main.cpp
[~]$ a.out
101
100
200
77
Bonus: Is it possible to specialize the other way around?:
template< typename T2 >
template< >
X<int> Y<T2>::x_in_y{105};
