>Description:
A static const variable declaration causes a compiler error when appearing inside the struct declaration.

>How-To-Repeat:
g++ -c -D_SHOW_ERROR test.cpp
>Fix:
Change the static const var to be a function returning the same value -- this is just a workaround. I don't know how to fix it at this time.
