Where is the rest of it?  What do the _Environment_ and stack classes
look like?  Do they look something like this:

typedef int data_type;

template <typename T>
class stack
{
public:
    data_type *get_array(int);
};

template <typename T> class _Environment_
{
public:
    stack<T> *vstack, *stack;
};

Am I close?

How do you instantiate Array objects?  Like this maybe:

Array<int, 10> a;

If so, then _Environment_ would look like this in the get_array method:

return _Environment_<10>::vstack->get_array<int>(length);

But `_Environment_<10>' doesn't make any sense.  The compiler wants a
type not a value.

Linux is free you know ;-)
