Just change 'namespace' to 'struct' and I think you should be set :)
Hmm, I tried this but I got compiler errors. The problem is I won't be able to set the names collection in a header, that's because you can't set an array of non-integral type inside the declaration of a struct. You have to provide storage for it in a .cpp. Is there perhaps something I'm missing here? _______________________________________________ Unsubscribe & other changes: http://lists.boost.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/boost
Would it work to provide storage for it in a static function inside the struct? If you need to keep the same syntax you could create a proxy class to access it, something like this (untested): struct myenum { static struct { private: static char * namestorage ( ) { static char namearray[] = { "yadda", "stuff", "etc" }; return namearray; } public: char * operator [] ( int index ) { return namestorage ( )[index]; } } names; }; -Jason
