The C++ pointer
So, this is an interesting topic. Again, about craftsmanship. While most c++ if not all using them, it seems that some basic knowledge is lacking; This time, I’ll touche some basic facts: the const pointer.
Do you know the difference between the next two statements(#22 and #24)?
One won’t compile, one will work just fine.
The thing with const pointers? You need to know where they are.
while const Test2* ptest2
Test2* const ptest22
means a const pointer to a none const value. In the second case, any value pointed by ptest22 can be changed.
