I found similiar but longer example in "C++ Primier" of Stanley B. Lippman
chapter 16.7. The book says nothing about instantiation an use of member template

Can anybody give me an axample of use of such template ????

I can't think of any use for MyClass::Embedded, but if you need
it instantiated, it should go something like

typename MyClass<int>::Embedded<char> myclass_embedded = { 42, 'F' };

Although, it's impossible to do outside 'MyClass' scope because the
member 'Embedded' is declared "private".
