Compiler error with default arguments and static template function

Question

Hi 
The following does not compile with visual studio 2010 sp1, and compiles with gcc.
#include <string>
class A
public:
   template<class T>
   static T& Get(const std::wstring&);
class B
 public:
  void f(
    double d,
    double c =A::Get<double>(L"test"));
int main()
    B b;
    b.f(5);
It gives me the following error 
error C2783: 'T & A::Get(const wchar_t *)' : could not deduce template argument for 'T'
If I change Get to be global function and not static function of A, it compiles.

Answer 1

It seems to be a compiler bug.  It fails in VS2012, but compiles in VS2013.
For completion sake, the problem exists if A is a namespace containing Get.  But not if Get is global.
The only solutions I can see are try to workaround the problem (make Get global) or upgrade to a newer version of VS.
