const as array size

We know that array size can be a constant integer.

Consider the following case ??

calss myc
{
const int size;
int arr[size];
public:
myc(int x):size(x){}
}

Why the above code shows an error ??

How can we overcome it ??

because array size needs to be a compile time constant integer

by using std::vector<int >

Hi, How do I create a const table of pointers to member functions? I'm implementing a Factory pattern (or jump table). I want to iterate through the table, calling each member function until a non-zero index is returned. Below is my attempt, which generates compiler errors: namespace Reference {

char s = "This string literal"; or char *s= "This string literal"; Both define a string literal. Both suppose to be read-only and not to be modified according to Standard. And both have type of "const char *". Right? But why does the compiler I am using allow s to be modified, instead of generating compile error?

Hi guys, In a program (not my own) I encountered the declaration of a constant pointer to an array consisting of two other const pointers to arrays. Not quite sure why they do it so complicated, but is it legal? Most compilers accept it, but one doesn't recognize the rhs as a constant. What are the requirements for the rhs in the declaration of a const pointer? Is the following program legal C? int main(int argc, char *argv) {

Hi, can somebody explain the following syntax to me. This is straight from a gnu info file: int main(void) { /* Hashed form of "GNU libc manual". */ const char *const pass = "$1$/iSaq7rB$EoUw5jJPPvAPECNaaWzMK/"; I think the idea at play here is whether the pointer is constant or not ?

Hi, I am having troble declaring a const array. If the array size is small, then one can do as follows: const double array = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}; What if I have an array of size say 1000 or 10000 which, lets say, I am reading from a data file? Then manually entering the values is impossible. So how do I declare such a constant array?

hi, it seems i can't assign the const variable u in class A, one way to solve the problem may be to build a copy constructor. however, why does C++ or vector class not like this code? my g++ is: gcc version 4.0.1 (Apple Inc. build 5465). thanks for the help. summary of compile error: --------------------------------------- cpp.C:4: error: non-static const member 'const unsigned int A::u',

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
