Alright, I've been trying to figure out why this code doesn't compile with MS Visual C++ 2005 Express Beta. According to #gamedev it should work fine. Any ideas? I can work around it, but it'd be nice if this actually worked. Note: I'm using C, not C++.


/* ERROR: "initializer is not a constant" on line "{ foo[0] }" */

#include <stdio.h>

char const * const foo[1] =
{
        "test"
};

struct
{
        char const * const blah;
}
const moo[1] =
{
        { foo[0] }
};

int main(void)
{
        printf("blahblahlbahla\n");
}

I'm running version 8.0.40607.16 (beta1.040607-1600) and that code compiles fine. Not that that's much help to you, sorry.
