I read in "Thinking in C++" this code works:
---------
class A
{
static const int b = 1;
};
---------
but it doesn't!
I do something wrong?
I use VC++6 and it returns:
-------
error C2258: illegal pure syntax, must be '= 0'
error C2252: 'b' : pure specifier can only be specified for functions

<http://www.comeaucompu ting.com/tryitout/> compiles it just fine. If
you're going to use a compiler as a measure of code correctness, use
that one. :)

VC++6 is wrong. VC++.NET compiles it.
In the short term, maybe try this instead:
class A { enum { b = 1 }; };
Or, if you don't need it as a compile-time constant (e.g., for use as
a template parameter, size of an array, etc.), initialize it when you
define it in a .cpp file:
// A.h
class A {
static const int b;
};
// A.cpp
const int A::b = 1;

Nah. It's actually simpler. He cannot be. Unless you let him,

You don't have to care about that. I'm just pondering.

If you killfile me I cannot send you my C++ language proposal for review.
It would be shame. How do you expect *me* to get it right? Drop me a mail

Hello all,
I have recently been porting code from Linux to cygwin and came across
a problem with static const class members (discussed below). I am
seeking to determine whether I am programming non-standard C++ or if the
problem lies elsewhere.
To summarize static const class members are not being accessed properly
when accessed from a DLL by another external object file (not within the
DLL). It only occurs when the static const...

Hi guys
Here's the class I try to compile (see below). By itself when I have a
test.cc file for example that creates an object which is an instance of
the class SpectralProfile, it compiles fine.

definition in SpectralProfofile.cc let's say the compiler says

I will know the class type at compile time, like so:
