<P><FONT SIZE=2>> Is there any way I can make class A a friend of class</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>> B only when the template parameter TYP2 of A is the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>> same as TYP2 of class B in instantiation ?</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>I don't know for sure, but have you tried:</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>template <class TYP1></FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>class A {</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>.....</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2> friend class B<TYP1>;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>};</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>There might be problems with recognizing A<t> with A<t,t>,</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>so it there are you may want to try partially specializing</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>A (I don't have the right syntax offhand, sorry). Just a</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>couple ideas, I don't give any assurance it would work :)</FONT>
