template function within template class

[Itchy]

Hi!

I just don't understand why my compiler complains about this line in
my program (see below). Maybe you can help me?

You can skip all the overloaded operators. I've marked the problem
areas. I get error in function generate_subkeys()

As soon as I removed the second operator[] ('reference' was undefined)
and changed all other places were it was used, the code compiles. It
is possible that your compiler is not good enough. Visual C++ v6 is
like that. You should consider getting a better compiler if yours is
VC++ v6 and you want to be able to handle member templates.
