const and Templates

[Jose Manuel Tovar]

Hello,

I have a problem using templates and const.

I want to be sure that in _coefs function, h can not be changed. So I use
const but the result is that I can not use a pointer to double to pass the
array of doubles.

Any idea?

P.D: If you delete the const the code compiles ok.

Thank you in advance.

template <class VCTH>
void _coefs (const VCTH& h)
{
}
//---------------------------------------------------------------------------

template <class VCTH>
void _trazador (VCTH& h)
{
h[0] = 2;
_coefs (h);
}
//---------------------------------------------------------------------------

void __fastcall TForm1::Button1Click(TObject *Sender)
{
double h[7];

h[0] = 1;
_trazador (h);
}
