Hello, I am verifying a simple fact concerning the use of the const keyword. I wrote the following simple program ============================ const int a=10; const int b=a; int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { } ============================ I tried it out with gcc, version 4.7.2 on Debian 7, and the result was the following: ============================ bostjan@wwpecker-5-deb:~/workspace/OB2/src$ cc -c -o test.o test.c test.c:3:1: error: initializer element is not constant b ============================ QUESTION: Is there a way to initialize a const to the value of another const?
