Title: (TDynamicArray) Const array
Received: Dec 26 1996 4:33PM
The problem is that of const declarations, or rather, lack thereof. This
is no more noticeable than, once again, in the array classes. One would
not expect that accessing a data member of the array would change the
array, yet if we use myConstArray->At(index), the compiler flags an error
for using a non-const method on a const array. I know you guys have lots
to do, but someone really should put some time into making methods which
don't change things (and shouldn't) const. This is a standard which, as
the Taligent guidelines state, is something which private developers
should do, but which framework developers (or more generally, people who
create methods that others will use) simply must do.
