   Hello   
      
   In many places in my class template I have to use a nested template from   
   a base class, with different template parameters. Since the base class   
   is dependent, I end up with a rather long construct to use throughout my   
   class:   
   	base_class_name:: template templ_name    
      
   Is there a way like a typedef or a using-declaration to redeclare/import   
   the template name into my class ?   
      
   The syntax for a using-declaration does not allow to name a template as   
   the entity. The entity name must end with either a template-id, either a   
   simple identifier directly, but not with   
         ... :: template _templ_name_   
   This makes sense since there would then be no way to know if the named   
   template is a function template or a class template.   
      
   Similarly, a typdef declaration may only name a type, but not a template.   
      
   Thank you,   
   Timothy Madden
