It will be eaten, but as soon as you instanziate with non-integer/non-string you
get an error, see also C++:

#include <string>

using namespace std;

void show(int i)
{
}

void show(string s)
{
}

template<typename T> class test
{
  public:
    T data;
    void p()
    {
      show(data);
    }
};

test<int> mytest1;
test<int *> mytest2;

int main()
{
  mytest1.p();
  mytest2.p();
}
