const member definitions in a class ....

Sorry,
I know this question has been asked many a time but what is the "standard" work around for defining a consts (and const arrays) in a C++ class??? That is, is there a nice way of doing it? What's the best and most readable way of doing it?

it's horrible:

Code:

---

class MyClass
{
 
const int arraySize = 3;//won't work
const int arr[3] = {1, 2, 3}; //won't work
 
enum{
arraySize = 3;
};
//but I still can't ...
const int arr[arraySize] = {1, 2, 3};
 
//see, I've got stuff that's really natural in a class definition - rather than implementation
//thus:
enum RANGE	{
	_OPEN = 0,
	_2R,
	_20R,
	_200R,
	_2K,
	_20K,
	_200K,
	_2M
};
const double	_RAN[_2M+1] = {
	0,
	2,
	20,
	200,
	2000,
	20000,
	200000,
	2000000
};
//so that in my code I can say things like setRange(_RAN[_2M]);
}

thanks

just do:

Code:

---

class MyClass : pulic ParentClass
{
const int arraySize
 ....
}
 
MyClass::MyClass():ParentClass(),arraySize(3)

---

Won't that get messy with a const array as in my example?

Oh right, you have a const array too...
Hmm...
I found this on google.

Declare in your class:

static const int arr[];


and in your cpp file:

const int MyClass::arr[] = { 1, 2, 3 };

Ha!
salubrious, dude!
that'll do, nicely.

thanks
