Define friend operator << for class template.

Hi,

I have a template class and I want to define an operator << as a friend
function. For each instantiation of the class I want a corresponding
instantiation of operator <<.
The following example fails to compile with g++ version 4.1.2.
I would appreciate it if you could help me fix it or point me to a suitable
reference.

Thank you,
Joe Hesse

#include <iostream>

// forward declaration

template <typename T>
std::ostream & operator << (std::ostream &, const Foo<T> &);

template <typename T>
class Foo {
private:
  T value;
public:
  Foo(const T & v) : value(v) {}
  friend std::ostream & operator << <> (std::ostream &, const Foo<T> &);
};

// implement operator <<
template <typename T>
std::ostream & operator << (std::ostream &o, const Foo<T> &f) {
  return o << f.value ;
}

int main() {
  Foo<int> fi;
  std::cout << fi;

  return 0;
}
