    Fixed. It was vary hard because msvc6 is not true C++ compiler. No true 
template member function is really pain. Linking error was really nasty. Its 
unfixable in 'a right way'. I have to instantiate manually 
CategoryStream::operator << for basic types and std::string and 
std::wstring. Please, check it. I am not sure Factory stuff workable under 
msvc6, but as I understand you don't need it anyway.

With best regards, Konstantin Litvinenko.
