C ++ nested templates

Possible duplicate:
Strange VC ++ compilation error, C2244

I have the following C ++ code with a template structure and its member function. The template function uses a template parameter in its declaration. The code won't compile.

template<typename MyType>
struct Network
{
    template<typename MyOtherType>
    void Do_Stuff(char param[MyOtherType::size]);
};

template<typename MyType>
template<typename MyOtherType>
void Network<MyType>::Do_Stuff(char param[MyOtherType::size])
{
};

struct Array_Size
{
    static const int size;
};

const int Array_Size::size=3;

int main()
{
}

      

Visual Studio 2010 generates the following error:

error C2244: 'Network<MyType>::Do_Stuff' : unable to match function definition to an existing declaration
    definition
    'void Network<MyType>::Do_Stuff(char [MyOtherType::size])'
    existing declarations
    'void Network<MyType>::Do_Stuff(char [MyOtherType::size])'

      

I don't understand why the compiler doesn't find a match even though the definition and declaration are identical.
