+typedef ulong(*getfreq) (void);
Is this used?
In the array declaration bellow...
Why, these are only values, no ?
They're function pointers. If they were values the compiler should complain, because "getfreq" is used as the type of the array.
+static const getfreq freq_f[] = {
const array const members, no?
Do you mean I should declare it like this:
static const getfreq const freq[] = { ...
Yes
Why? When can you ever change what an array (not a pointer) points to?
Uh oh ... now I see the stuff with the functions. Crazy
I don't see the point because an array has no other storage besides it's elements. Moreover GCC generates the same object code in both ways.
Type checking, if you ever decided to write into the array, it'll prevent you from doing so.
The first const takes care of that.
Doesn't one prevent you from manupulating the elements and the other manipulating the array ?
