Re: "using" declaration and template (generic) classes

Hello All,

I want to refer to the Nullable< T > template type in C++/CLI (a header
file) without requiring explicit qualification of the System:: namespace.

So I effectively want to do this (which won't actually compile):

using System::Nullable< T >; // or something to this affect

class MyClass
{
  property Nullable< int > MyProperty
  {
     // ...
  }
};

I can't find the right syntax to do this - yes I could use using namespace
System and yes I could qualify the typename (which I have done for the
moment as a workaround).

But it's now an academic exercise for me. Is it possible for a using
declaration to reference a generic class, and what is the syntax?

Nothing I have tried works, such as:

using System::Nullable< T >;
using System::Nullable< typename >;
using System::Nullable< typename T >;
template< typename T > using System::Nullable< T >;

And I can't find anything online or in the documentation.

Thanks

Kevin
