Yes. It works pretty much like it does in C++, and the syntax is as you
would expect:
declare sub foo (byref bar as const integer, byval baz as const MyUDT
const ptr)

Is it possible to do a constant reference? In c++, it's denoted by:
const int*
or
const int&

I am now sure that defaulting to BYREF is pure evil, and we should
make OPTION BYVAL a priority. Plus, I'm getting sick of typing
hundreds of explicit BYVALs.
I like that goal. I have been making an effort to be explicit about
integer arguments already.
I was reading the FreeBasic docs about BYVAL and OPTION BYVAL, and I am
uncertain about a couple things.
A BYVAL default for integers and ptrs is a no-brainer, and I understand
the quirks regarding BYVAL strings, but what I don't know is:
* Does BYVAL on a TYPE make a complete copy of the whole dang structure?
* Does OPTION BYVAL apply to TYPEs?
* What effect (if any) does BYVAL have on arrays?
* Does OPTION BYVAL apply to arrays?
