Re: Error :: specialization of Template Function on Meta - Template Class

Hi All ,

i am getting Error while specialization of Template Function on Meta -
Template Class
Thanking in Advance.

------------------ file1.h -----------------------------------
template<typename T>
class Foo {
     T data;
     public:
     Foo(T in);

     template<typename TT> void bar(TT value);
};

=========== End of File =============
-------------------------file1.hpp -----------------------------

#include "file1.h"

#include<iostream>
#include<string>
using namespace std;

template<typename T>
Foo<T> :: Foo(T input) : data(input) { }

template<typename T>
template<typename TT>
void Foo<T> :: bar(TT value)
{
    cout<< " Foo<T> :: void bar(TT value) : "<< value<< endl;
}

template<typename T>
void Foo<T> :: bar<string>(string value)
{
    cout<< " Foo<T> :: String Specialization : "<< value<< endl;
}
