Topic: Use of class-declared enums outside of that class

Hi,
This example is based on one given in the ARM pp. 240-241 :
class X {
public:
enum E2 { a2, b2 };
X() {}
} ;
main ()
{
X::E2 e2 = X::a2 ;
}
With Sun C++ 2.0 I get the error messages :
"Ctest.C", line 10: error: `;' missing after statement
"Ctest.C", line 10: error: syntax error
With G++ 1.37 I get :
Ctest.C: In function int main ():
Ctest.C:10: field `E2' is not a member of type `X'
Ctest.C:10: parse error before `e2'
2 errors
My question is - are these responses bugs and if so are they known bugs?
Thanks,
