Why do I get an error about the initializer not being a constant?

Question

I am using the following code.

const int X_ORIGIN = 1233086;             
const int Y_ORIGIN = -4728071;              
const int Z_ORIGIN = 4085704;
const in         


        

Answer 1

As triclosan said:

main()
{
    const int X_ORIGIN = 1233086;
    const int Y_ORIGIN = -4728071;
    const int Z_ORIGIN = 4085704;
    const int xyzOrigin[] = {X_ORIGIN, Y_ORIGIN, Z_ORIGIN};
}

this works fine...

or, if you know the dimensions beforehand, this:

#define DIM 3

main()
{
    const int X_ORIGIN = 1233086;
    const int Y_ORIGIN = -4728071;
    const int Z_ORIGIN = 4085704;
    const int xyzOrigin[DIM] = {X_ORIGIN, Y_ORIGIN, Z_ORIGIN};
}
