No, that wouldn't make sense, but it also wouldn't compile. I was under the impression that templates are compiled on a per template-parameter basis... ie, for each distinct set of template parameters, there exists independent assembly at distinct memory addresses. I interpret this as meaning, "As long as a template is syntactically correct, it will be compiled once for each distinct set of template parameters". Therefore, I would expect someone who called my code with class "FooBar" as the template parameter to get an error notifying him/her of an unknown or invalid type, whereas someone compiling with int would work just fine.

As an aside, just because a piece of C++ code can be used in a way that doesn't make sense doesn't mean it is invalid code. The compiler doesn't complain at all if I call numeric_limits<FooBar>::digits, which clearly also doesn't make sense. Sometimes when performing design by contract, verifying that the user abides by the contract is far too expensive to be practical. Most C++ code cannot be written to be idiot-proof.

Sounds like somebody's got a case of the Mondays
