[webkit-dev] Problems specializing DefaultHash

[Mike Emmel]

First here is my gcc version

 gcc --version
gcc (GCC) 4.0.3 20060115 (prerelease) (Debian 4.0.2-7)
Copyright (C) 2005 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

Next the following code in  won't specialize for me
JavaScriptCore/kxmlcore/HashMap.h

template<typename Key, typename Mapped, typename HashFunctions =
typename DefaultHash<Key>::Hash, typename KeyTraits = HashTraits<Key>,
typename MappedTraits = HashTraits<Mapped> >
class HashMap


The error is
WebCore/dom/xml_tokenizer.h:75: error: invalid use of undefined type
'struct KXMLCore::DefaultHash<WebCore::DOMString>'
JavaScriptCore/kxmlcore/HashFunctions.h:32: error: declaration of
'struct KXMLCore::DefaultHash<WebCore::DOMString>'
WebCore/dom/xml_tokenizer.h:75: error: template argument 3 is invalid
WebCore/dom/xml_tokenizer.h:75: error: invalid type in declaration
before ';' token


And the offending line is


HashMap<DOMString, DOMString> parseAttributes(const DOMString&, bool& attrsOK);


This is way beyond my limited knowledge of templates my guess is that
at this point
DOMString has not been defined completely ? So you can't create a
template of a predeclared type ?
