常量指针

 

 

const char* p1 = "Mouse"; // pointer to const identifier
char* const p2 = "Small"; // const pointer to non-const variable
const char* const p3 = "Horse"; // const pointer to a const identifier
p1 = "Elephant"; // Legal to reassign non-const ptr
p2 = "Huge"; // Illegal reassignment of const ptr

 

In the above example, p1 is a pointer that points to the constant value
"Mouse", but it may be reassigned to point to another const char
value. p2 is a constant pointer to a non-constant value and cannot be
reassigned (similar to a reference). p3 is itself constant and also points to
a constant value.

char* p4 = "Cat"; // pointer to non-const declaration
p1 = p4; // pointer to const assigned a non-const variable
p4 = p1; // Error: illegal attempt to downgrade a const

 

C++ allows a pointer to const to point to a non-const value. This
initially appears counterintuitive, but what it means is the value being
pointed to will be treated as a const. However, a pointer to a non-const
cannot be assigned the value of a pointer to const, as that would remove
the constness of the pointer to const type.
