Nope! Static data members have to be defined exactly once in the whole program. The only exception are constant integral expressions whose address is never taken: these don't need any definition. However, addresses are easily taken, e.g. by passing the value to a function taking an 'int const&' as parameter. The best bet for a constant integral expression which does not need a separate definition is using an enum. -- <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://www.dietmar-kuehl.de/> <http://www.eai-systems.com> - Efficient Artificial Intelligence _______________________________________________ help-gplusplus mailing list help-gplusplus@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-gplusplus
