| Mar 10 at 9:16 | comment | added | Andreas Otto | this is right if the class is defined in a header(h) file but if the class is defined in the code(cc) file this is just an extra unnecessary step. | |
| Oct 16, 2017 at 8:43 | comment | added | PMF | @JesusChrist: Not sure. Either it wouldn't matter if the const member got a new memory location every time (in fact existing multiple times) or not at all (because it gets eliminated by the compiler) | |
| Sep 5, 2017 at 20:14 | comment | added | BozanicJosip | if that's sole reason why it's prevented, why const members are allowed? Don't they get initialized in every place where the header is included aswell? | |

| Dec 1, 2013 at 14:59 | comment | added | mishelashala | Because i did another one. But it does not matter. Thank for the info | |
| Dec 1, 2013 at 13:18 | comment | added | PMF | @user3053929: Where did you put it? It needs to be outside any function but where the class Employee is known. BTW: Why is your cpp file called employee2.cpp? And including employee2.h? | |
