Of course, what I am doing with the structure members is to say "These have been declared as writeable (LPSTR pszXYZ); I don't know whether they are meant to be writeable, so I dare not change them to LPCSTR pcszXYZ. In which case, I am cutting the compiler noise when looking for opportunities to declare suitable strings const (using the -Wwrite-strings switch). The question is: is this wise, or am I masking potential bugs?
