Re: Referencing a "constant" class variable

To initialize variables with non-constant values, you need an initialization function which is called automatically when an object is being constructed from the class." (from the manual) Whether or not the syntax MyEnums::thisVar is correct and will accomplish what you want when moved into a function is another story. I haven't been paying close attention and am not sure what you are trying to do, but since it appears you want something that is constant, have you thought about using DEFINE?
