[vtk-developers] Const arrays in vtkSetVector*Macro ( Was: the hints file )

[Andy Cedilnik]

Hi All,

That said, could we modify all the 
virtual void SetSomething(type*) 
to 
virtual void SetSomething(const type*)?

I added standard colors to Common/Testing/Cxx and the type had to be
static float color[3] instead of static const float color[3].

So, comments?
