const

[Anonymous]

I have a short (and maybe stupid) question:

Does

   const obj &         mean a reference to a constant object, i.e. the
                         object itself cannot be changed  

and

   obj const &         mean a constant reference to an object, i.e. the
                         reference is constant (but not necessarily the
                         object) ?


If so, I think the first alternative is probably the right thing to use
in most places...
