I checked with a tiny test program, you're right about GCC complaining.
The right fix is to make the field const (I don't know about const
keyword).
G++ won't give warnings, no error would be triggered by a broken fix.
By the way, const char* and char const* are the same, you probably
meant char * const.
Is it?
I never remember which one is a mutable pointer of const chars and which
the const pointer of mutable chars so I relied on the description at
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/162480/const-in-c#answer-162504
before sending the mail.
it's easy, whatever const is closer to is immutable
const char * is a pointer to a const char, because the const is closer
to the char than to the pointer.
char * const is a const pointer to a char, because the const is closer
to the pointer than to the char.
Anyway, never used char const *, which will conflict with my explanation :)
Best,
