I have asked this question before -- maybe to the gcc-help list but
I'm still unclear.
The problem is this:
struct foo {
int a;
int b;
int c;
};
static const int foo::*j = &foo::c; // accepted
class dog {
static const int foo::*k = &foo::c; // error
};
5.19 (constant expressions) paragraph 2, the last item in the 1998 C+
+ spec says " -- a pointer to member constant expression." That
appears to be defined as: '&' qualified-id (5.19 paragraph 6).
So is the line in error legal C++ or not?
Thanks,
Perry
