Hello!

I've got a 'situation' here. I think this should work... Any ideas?
I want to have a template which specifies a static stl map and other stuff.
And then derive from it and create that static stl map.  It doesn't seem to be
working.

(pseudo copy)

<< first .h file>>
namespace conversion
{
template <class T>
class refCount
{
public:
static std::map<void*,void*> objectList;
...
};
};

<<new .h file>>

class example;

class example: public refCount<<example>>
{
example()
{ }
}


<< cpp file >>

std::map<void*, void*> example::objectList;


When I try to compile it tells me that objectList is not a member of the struct example.

I'll attach the three real files for added enjoyment.

Thanks for any help!
