Hi, adding a const qualifier to a function parameter without changing the handling of the parameter (e.g. copying or not copying it inside the function) is no API breakage. Removing the const qualifier would arguably be an API breakage though.
Compilers warn about implicitly removing a const qualifier (passing const char * to a function taking char *) but not about implicitly adding a const qualifier (passing char * to a function taking const char *).
