Sample Code

/* Compile options needed: None
*/ 

template <class T>
class Base
{
public:
   T data;
   int i;
};

template <class T>
class Derived : public Base<T>
{
public:
   int j;
};

template <class T>
void AFunction(Base<T>* b)
{
   return;
}

void main()
{
   // Uncomment one of the following two statements to work around the

   // problem. If the template class definition is in a header file,
   // you may want to include one of the following two statements at
   // the end of that file.

   // template Derived<int>;
   // Derived<int> dummy;

   Derived<int> *j;

   AFunction(j);   // Gives C2670 here
}
