Hey ho, First post to the list, so I'm hoping I won't make too much of a fool out of myself.
Every once in a while, I suddenly think that yes, I too can be a programmer. In that spirit, I've piled up a nice bunch of beginner books, the most recent of them being "Learning C#". The fact that I tend to be unable to do something useful with the basic knowledge I gathered is totally irrelevant here. Maybe I should start buying intermediate books, for a start. My question being, however: when I initialize a const int to a certain int value, and later on reassign it, Mono merrily tells me that compilation succeeded. Like so: const int meh = 5; meh = 10; Kind of unexpected... :-/ The only post mentioning something at least quite similar, is that of Jonathan Stowe in April 2002 [1]. Apart from that, I can't seem to find anything related to Mono not being capable of pointing me to the most basic of mistakes. Could someone give me a clue? Or is it supposed to be that way? I didn't find any bugs either, but that might be just me... Cheers, Tom [1] lists.ximian.com/archives/public/mono-list/2002-April/004801.html -- key: http://tmp.verbreyt.be/files/abwaerts.asc
