Hi Hackers
Ref.: man 3 getopt
int getopt(int argc, char * const argv[], const char *optstring);
Ref.: K&R 2nd Ed P.211 last indent, 2nd sentence
The purpose of const is to announce objjects that may be
placed in read-only memory, and perhaps to increas opportunities
for optimization
optstring is obviously const,
but I don't see that argv can calim to be const ?
Did some ISO standard redefine const ? If so URL please ?
(I learnt my C from K&R #1 decades ago :-)
Cheers,
Julian
