Of course. > So 'int const *p;', while legal, is misleading as the const belongs to > the int. It has to be 'int * const p;'. Well obviously you can write int const *p; if that is what you mean. If you mean int *const p;" then that is what you have to write. What I think you mean is that you find this distinction complicated. -- Ben.
