Static is a little bit better in that the uses of it at least have some
connection to the dictionary meaning of "static", even if perhaps a
little
distant. But there's just no way to stretch the dictionary meaning of
"enumeration" to include manifest constants. Like everyone else, I can at
least live with it, but I look forward to the day the linker issue is
fixed
so we can finally mutilate/destroy/kill it, dead, dead, dead with extreme
prejudice in favor of immutable. It's a stain - doesn't really cause a
problem, but boy is it ever UGLY.
Float is not floating and double is not doubling, are they next?
