Does this mean that you can transform a const char * by calling a function?
like:
char * un_const (const char *p)
{
return (char *)p;
}
void do_something(const char *read_only)
{
char *foo = un_const(read_only);
*foo = '\0';
}
This would break the clean behaviour that can be forced through
the use of const pointers. Am I right here or did I miss something?
