Hi all,

I have a question regarding enum as template paramater.
Here is my example :
enum MY_ENUM { ZERO=0, ONE, TWO };

template <MY_ENUM e>
class MyTmpClass
{
 public :
  MY_ENUM GetMyEnum() const;
};

template <MY_ENUM e>
MY_ENUM
MyTmpClass<e>::GetMyEnum() const
{
 return (MY_ENUM)e;  //Cast needed by my compiler
}

// Main Routine
int
main(int , char** )
{
 {
  MyTmpClass<ZERO> zero;
  cout << "zero.GetMyEnum() : " << zero.GetMyEnum() << endl;

  MyTmpClass<ONE> one;
  cout << "one.GetMyEnum() : " << one.GetMyEnum() << endl;

  MyTmpClass<TWO> two;
  cout << "two.GetMyEnum() : " << two.GetMyEnum() << endl;

  MyTmpClass<3> three;
  cout << "three.GetMyEnum() : " << three.GetMyEnum() << endl;

}


Is this code correct  ? It compiles with SunPro 4.2 but I am surprised
about the declarations of three : MyTmpClass<3>. Since 3 is not in
MY_ENUM why does it compiles without any warnings ?

Thank in advance

~Xavier
