Defining a function's parameter to be const is completely irrelevant except in the actual implementation. Thus, the following should work according to the Standard. Thanks. void foo( void (*)(int) ); void bar( int const ); void test() {foo( bar );} --- [ comp.std.c++ is moderated. To submit articles, try just posting with ] [ your news-reader.
