Hallo,

it seems to be there is an error in g++ 2.2.2

it is not possible to implement global(not friend)
ostream operators for template classes

the following is a shorthand example of the problem

i thank for your efforts

	int	len() const { return _len; }
	T&	operator[](int i) {return _arr[i]; }
	void	print(ostream& s) const 
	{
		for ( int i = 0; i < _len; i++ ) {
			s << _arr[i] << " ";

	/* thats why version 2 */
