Compiler Error C2902
'token' : unexpected token following 'template', identifier expected
The token following the keyword template
was not an identifier.
This error is obsolete in Visual Studio 2022 and later versions.
The following sample generates C2902:
// C2902.cpp
// compile with: /c
namespace N {
template<class T> class X {};
class Y {};
}
void g() {
N::template + 1; // C2902
}
void f() {
N::template X<int> x1; // OK
}
C2902 can also occur when using generics:
// C2902b.cpp
// compile with: /clr /c
namespace N {
generic<class T> ref class GC {};
}
void f() {
N::generic + 1; // C2902
N::generic GC<int>^ x;
}
